New York Mets Star Juan Soto Projected to Join Elite Baseball History in 2025

Soto signed a 15-year deal worth $765 million which could tether him to the Mets for the rest of his career. Among the most disciplined hitters in the sport, Soto has led baseball in walks in three different seasons and is the active leader in on-base percentage at .421.

A lifetime .285 hitter, Soto has spent seven years in the big leagues with the Washington Nationals, San Diego Padres and New York Yankees. He helped the Yankees advance to the World Series in 2024 by posting a .288 average with 41 homers and 109 RBI.

He is a five-time Silver Slugger winner, a four-time All-Star, a batting champion and a World Series champion (Nationals - 2019).

With Soto in the fold, the Mets will be looking to improve upon last year's trip to the National League Championship Series. He'll pair with Francisco Lindor and Mark Vientos to make up a dynamic middle-of-the-order in Queens, however, it looks like Pete Alonso won't be joining them.

The longtime first baseman is expected to sign elsewhere this offseason, despite the Mets reportedly making attempts to bring him back.
