The Boston Red Sox have emerged as the top contender to sign free agent slugger Juan Soto, surpassing the New York Yankees and their cross-town rival Mets. According to NJ.com’s Randy Miller, three teams – including the Red Sox – are considering offers upwards of $600 million for Soto. In contrast, the Yankees’ estimated offer is around $550 million. If true, this report suggests the Yankees may not have a chance at re-signing Soto unless their final offer exceeds $600 million.
