How Juan Soto Impacted Baseball
Juan Soto shocked the baseball world when he signed a fifteen year 765 million dollar deal with the New York Mets.
Soto’s contract is more valuable than Dodger’s star Shohei Ohtani’s ten year 700 million dollar deal he signed last year in the offseason.
Soto who has played with the Washington Nationals, the San Diego Padres, and the New York Yankees, is a four time All-Star and came off hitting 41 home runs and 109 RBI’s this past season.
This contract impacts baseball as it is now one of the richest contracts in MLB history and has made Juan Soto one of the more prized players in the league.
Soto had many teams in the MLB on their feet trying to get him on their team. The New York Mets and owner Steve Cohen had been one of the teams who were strong in wanting to acquire Soto’s services.
Soto now also teams up with Mets SuperStar Francisco Lindor to bring excitement to fans in Queens.
A Crazy Weekend of Football
This past weekend has been one of the craziest sequences in both collegiate and professional levels of football.
In college football it showed all the teams clinching their spots to compete for their respective conference championships and also a potential berth in the college football playoff in the new twelve team format.
One of the biggest storylines of college football was Michigan spoiling their rival’s Ohio State chance to compete for the Big Ten conference championship. This is the fourth year in a row that Ohio State has lost to Michigan and missed out at the conference title game. The game also ended with a big fight over Michigan looking to plant their team flag on the Ohio State logo in the middle of the field.
In the NFL, you still have a few weeks of football before the postseason comes to play. So far you have the Lions, Bills, and Eagles who have been the best teams in the league.
During the Texans vs Jaguars game, Azeez Al-Shaair landed a major hit on Trevor Lawrence while sliding. After the sequence, it caused a major fight in which Jaguars players came after Al-Shaair and the Texans’ sidelines started to come out.
In the world of football, all you can say is that anything can happen, and emotions can get the best of anyone.
