New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in his team's 7-3 win against the visiting Atlanta Braves. Soto kicked off a big five-run fourth inning with a dinger and also capped the scoring for the Mets in the seventh with homer No. 19 of the season. The 26-year-old has been scorching at the dish in June with an otherworldly .325/.485/.753 triple slash across 77 at-bats. Over that stretch, he's tallied ten long balls, three doubles, 22 runs scored, 18 RBI, and more walks (23) than strikeouts (15). Wednesday marked his fourth multi-homer effort of the campaign, and second in the last week.

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto turned in his best performance of the season in an 11-4 defeat of the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday. Soto set season-high marks with four hits and four RBI and walloped two home runs in a 4-for-5 night. The four-time All-Star got off to a slow start in 2025 (by his lofty standards), but he has emphatically turned it around in June with a .338 average (22-for-65), seven homers, 14 RBI, 18 runs, and 20:11 BB:K in 19 games. Thanks largely to his outburst this month, Soto is on track for another huge offensive campaign. He's now hitting .256/.393/.484 with 16 HRs, 41 RBI, 54 runs, and eight steals in 341 plate appearances.

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto had a productive day in his team's 5-4 loss to the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday. Soto went 2-for-3 with a solo homer and a walk in the loss. The star outfielder kicked off the scoring with his solo blast in the first inning, a shot that traveled 412 feet with an exit velocity of 108.4 MPH. Soto is now slashing .252/.392/.469 with 14 homers, 52 runs, 37 RBI, and eight steals across 258 at-bats in his first season with the Mets. He has been hot at the plate lately, batting .340 with five homers and 10 RBI over his past 15 contests. Soto remains an elite hitter both in fantasy and real life.

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto homered for the second straight game in the team's 5-0 win over the Washington Nationals on Wednesday. Soto blasted a two-run shot off right-hander Jake Irvin and notched a single during a 2-for-4 night. After signing a 15-year, $765 million contract in free agency, Soto endured a rocky first couple of months as a Met. He has returned to his superstar form in June, though, having gone 13-of-34 (.382) with four long balls, eight RBI, 13 runs, and 12 walks against seven strikeouts. That spectacular output over a 10-game span has raised Soto's line to .252/.387/.467 with 13 homers, 35 RBI, and 49:55 K:BB through 302 plate appearances. With Soto ranking among the elite in most batted-ball metrics, fantasy managers should expect his production to keep rising over the next couple of months. He may be in for another big game Thursday versus Nationals starter Michael Soroka. Soto has gone 6-for-10 with two HRs, four walks, and one strikeout against the righty.

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto homered for the second straight game in a 5-3 win over the Colorado Rockies on Sunday. Soto's solo shot, his 10th of the year, was his lone hit during a 1-for-2 afternoon. He also chipped in a walk and an additional run scored. Soto had gone 17 straight games without an HR before he went deep in the Mets' win on Saturday. However, the 26-year-old superstar looked more like his typical self this weekend. He's now batting .233/.363/.429 in his first 259 plate appearances as a Met. As a lifetime .282/.417/.525 hitter, odds are Soto's production will keep rising as the season advances. He'll attempt to stay hot against Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Dustin May on Monday. May has held the upper hand in their matchups, having limited Soto to a weak 1-for-9 line with a double, three walks, and two strikeouts.

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto broke a 17-game home run drought on Saturday to help the club to an 8-2 win over the Colorado Rockies. Soto, who hadn't gone yard since May 9, delivered a 404-foot solo shot against Rockies right-hander Antonio Senzatela in the fourth inning. He finished the day 1-for-3 with a walk and an additional run scored. Soto's now hitting .231/.357/.413 with nine homers in 255 plate appearances. While that is above-average production, it's not the type of all-world output the Mets or fantasy managers were expecting from the superstar this year. However, there's hardly reason to panic. With 43 walks against 42 strikeouts, Soto has continued to show elite plate discipline this season. He also ranks in the league's 98th percentile in xwOBA (.422), which suggests a turnaround is on the way. Soto has a good chance to carry Saturday's success into Sunday against struggling Rockies left-hander Carson Palmquist (8.78 ERA in three starts).

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto did not play his part offensively in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the White Sox. Soto went 0-for-4 with a strikeout. The 26-year-old signed a massive 15-year, $765 million contract this spring but has failed to live up to the hype so far, slashing .228/.355/.401 with eight home runs, 25 RBI, and seven stolen bases in 242 plate appearances. He has managed decent counting stats and has walked at a solid 16.9% clip, but he has recorded a hit in just one of his last six games. Soto has been one of fantasy's top players throughout his career, leaving fantasy managers with little to do but hope he can get back to his typical ways. In the interim, they may want to consider sitting Soto if they can afford to do so until he figures things out.

New York Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said he plans to speak to superstar outfielder Juan Soto about his lack of hustle after Soto was held to a single in Monday's game against the Boston Red Sox on a ball that hit high off Fenway Park's Green Monster in a 3-1 loss. Soto thought the ball he hit was a home run, slowly jogging to first base before realizing the ball didn't leave the park and being held to a single. "I think I've been hustling pretty hard. If you saw it today, you could tell," Soto said. The 26-year-old also jogged slowly out of the box in Sunday's 8-2 loss to the Yankees on a ball up the middle in which he was thrown out by multiple steps. He's currently slashing .246/.376/.439 with eight homers and six steals in the first year of a 15-year, $765 million contract. Soto's on-base percentage, slugging and OPS are all the lowest marks of his career going into Tuesday's action.

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto will get his first day off of the season on Wednesday against the visiting Pittsburgh Pirates with a left-hander on the mound. Jose Azocar will replace him in right field and will bat ninth against Pirates left-hander Bailey Falter. Given all the expectations surrounding Soto, the 26-year-old Dominican has been a disappointment from a fantasy standpoint with a .255 average (40-for-157), but he still has a .380 on-base percentage and .845 OPS in 192 plate appearances, adding eight home runs, 20 RBI and 31 runs scored. He's been heating up of late, too, going 13-for-45 (.289) with five home runs, two doubles, an RBI and 10 runs scored in 12 games in the month of May. Azocar has five hits in his first 17 at-bats with the Mets this year but will be a low-upside DFS option in the nine-hole for the Mets against a pitcher he has never faced.

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto came up clutch for his team during Wednesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Soto was quiet in the game until he blasted a solo home run off right-hander Merrill Kelly in the sixth inning. It was a 427-foot blast that would give the Mets the lead in this contest. Soto wasn't done as he connected again for a home run off lefty Jalen Beeks in the eighth inning. Soto finished the game 2-for-4 with two homers and three RBI in the win. Soto got off to an average start to the season, but has been hot with the bat over the last week. Fantasy managers are finally getting the results they expected out of Soto.

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto came ready to hit in Thursday's series finale against the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks, going 2-for-3 with two solo home runs and a walk in the team's 4-2 loss. Soto accounted for all of New York's offense in this one and is now up to five home runs on the season with a .252 batting average and .822 OPS. The 26-year-old's first homer came off starter Zac Gallen in the sixth inning, and his second round-tripper came in the eighth inning off reliever Kevin Ginkel to bring the Mets to within one run at the time. It's been a pretty disappointing start to Soto's tenure in New York, but the four-time All-Star's fantasy managers will be hoping that this big game is a springboard to more consistent performances. In addition to his five homers, Soto has 14 RBI, 23 runs scored and two stolen bases in his 32 games played.

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto went 2-for-3 with a single, double, walk, and strikeout in his team's 7-4 win against the St. Louis Cardinals. The lefty slugger notched a sac fly, drove in three runs, and scored once. Soto hasn't yet lived up to his billing in his new digs, but he's still been productive. Despite an uncharacteristic .256 average, he's already recorded 16 runs with 12 RBI, five doubles, and three long balls. The power hasn't come around yet for him, but he's still walking a strong 17.7% of the time and holds a solid .385 OBP. It's too early to panic about him, particularly because a down year from Soto is still better than most ballplayers' best. The 26-year-old should heat up in no time.

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto smacked his first home run in a Mets uniform in Friday's 3-1 win over the Astros. It was a solo shot and his only hit of the day, going 1-for-3 with a walk in the contest. That makes him 2-for-6 with three walks (.556 OBP) after the team's first two regular season games. The 26-year-old signed a massive 15-year, $765 million contract with New York in the offseason, bringing his career .285/.421/.533 slash line along with him. The left-handed slugger seems to be fitting in just fine so far, and will face Astros' RHP Spencer Arrighetti on Saturday night. Soto is 2-for-3 with a home run off Houston's starter, so be on the lookout for some fireworks again.

New York Mets superstar outfielder Juan Soto will be in the lineup for the team's Grapefruit League opener on Saturday against a Houston Astros split-squad team, according to manager Carlos Mendoza. In addition to Soto, shortstop Francisco Lindor and first baseman Pete Alonso are expected to play. The 26-year-old Soto signed with the Mets on a 15-year, $765 million deal in free agency after helping lead the New York Yankees to the World Series last fall. He hit .288/.419/.569 with a career-high 41 home runs in 157 games for the Yankees last year and will come off the board in the first round of most fantasy drafts this spring. In addition to his 41 home runs in 2024, the four-time All-Star led the league in runs (128) and drove in 109 runs and stole seven bases. Soto is still only 26 years old and is easily one of the best all-around hitters in the game.

New York Mets manager Carlos Mendoza is leaning towards putting shortstop Francisco Lindor at the top of the batting order and recently acquired outfielder Juan Soto in the two-hole. Lindor spent most of the 2025 campaign batting in the top spot and performed very well. When batting first, Lindor posted a stellar .303/.374/.552 line with 26 home runs and 31 doubles. He held a 42:97 BB:K ratio. He generated a .379 xwOBA, placing him in the 95th percentile among qualified hitters. Juan Soto spent his entire 2024 season batting in the two-hole with the Yankees. He posted a .288/.419/.569 line with a career-best 41 home runs. He showed an elite eye at the plate with an 18.1 percent walk rate. As a result, fantasy managers should expect Pete Alonso, Mark Vientos, and Brandon Nimmo to bat behind them, providing them with elite RBI opportunities.

According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, the New York Mets have signed free-agent outfielder Juan Soto to a massive 15-year contract worth $765 million. This is the largest deal in professional sports history and will likely keep Soto as a New York Met for the remainder of his professional career. Last season with the New York Yankees, Soto posted a stellar .285/.419/.569 slash line with 41 home runs. He boasted a .462 xwOBA, 19.7% barrel rate, and .646 xSLG, which were among the highest marks in the sport. Throughout his seven-year MLB career, Soto carries a .285/.421/.532 line. Given his incredible hitting skills, he should be viewed as a consensus first-round selection next season and a top pick in points leagues given his incredible eye at the plate.

According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, the New York Yankees, New York Mets, Boston Red Sox, and Toronto Blue Jays have made an offer "in the ballpark" of $700 million and nearing 15-plus years to free-agent outfielder Juan Soto. Heyman also noted that the Los Angeles Dodgers have submitted an offer of around "$600 million." The race to sign the 26-year-old superstar continues to heat up as several owners are willing to open their pockets to put themselves as the highest bidder. Last summer in his debut campaign in the Bronx, Soto posted an excellent .288/.419/.569 slash line with 41 long balls. Under the hood, he boasted a .462 xwOBA and .316 xBA, which placed him in the top 100th percentile among qualified hitters. No matter where he calls home in 2025, Soto will be a consensus first-round selection in all fantasy formats this spring.

The bidding for free-agent superstar outfielder Juan Soto has reached $600 million, according to two people briefed on the negotiations who were not authorized to speak publicly. Soto's agent, Scott Boras, said on Tuesday that his client has also started the process of eliminating potential teams. The Mets, Yankees, Red Sox, Blue Jays and Dodgers are reportedly the most serious about Soto, and all the remaining contenders have made offers above $600 million. The MLB winter meetings begin on Sunday in Dallas, and the expectation is that Soto will make his decision by the end of the meetings. The 26-year-old generational talent is expected to sign for at least 12 years, with the present-day value of his new contract almost certainly beating the record Shohei Ohtani set last offseason with a deferred 10-year, $700 million contract. Wherever Soto is playing, he should continue to be an offensive beast.

SNY's Andy Martino writes that there is a widespread belief among bidders that the Toronto Blue Jays will come in with the highest offer to free-agent superstar outfielder Juan Soto. However, it's no secret that the New York Yankees and New York Mets are "all in" on Soto, according to a league source. There is also widespread skepticism that Soto would choose the Blue Jays, but a source says that if a team is involved in the final bidding, Soto will be willing to play there. In addition to the Blue Jays, Yankees and Mets, the Boston Red Sox have been heavily involved with the generational talent. The expectation is that Soto's market will begin to pick up now that Thanksgiving is in the rearview mirror, and the widespread belief is that he'll choose his next team before the end of the upcoming winter meetings in Texas. Wherever Soto is playing in 2025 and beyond, he'll be a high-end fantasy asset.

The New York Yankees have raised their offer to try and re-sign superstar outfielder Juan Soto in the last couple of days, according to people familiar with the situation. The news could come as a response to a report on Tuesday that said the division-rival Boston Red Sox are making an early push to try and pry Soto away from the Bronx. In addition to the Yankees and Red Sox, the Mets, Dodgers and Blue Jays are in on the Soto sweepstakes. New York has also reached out to free-agent pitchers Corbin Burnes and Max Fried, but they remain solely focused on trying to bring Soto back after he hit a career-high 41 home runs in 2024 and led the team to a World Series appearance. The 26-year-old generational talent is expected to set an MLB record for contract value, with word coming that teams are willing to go beyond $600 million to land him. Soto is believed to be interested in a 15-year deal.
