\u201cBREAKING: Superstar outfielder Juan Soto and the New York Mets are in agreement on a 15-year, $765 million contract, sources tell ESPN. It is the largest deal in professional sports history,\u201d Passan tweeted.<\/p>\n

\u201cJuan Soto\u2019s 15-year, $765 million deal with the New York Mets includes no deferred money, according to sources, and has escalators that can reach above $800 million,\u201d continued<\/a> Passan.<\/p>\n

Soto will be entering the eighth season of his career in the MLB<\/a> in the spring after four and a half with the Washington Nationals, one and a half with the San Diego Padres, and this past one with the New York Yankees. This now has him going from The Bronx to Queens as he\u2019ll change boroughs along with teams in The Big Apple.<\/p>\n

Over his seven-year career as a pro, Soto has batted at .285 with an on-base percentage of .421 and a slugging percentage of .532.<\/p>\n

In that time, he has participated in a pair of World Series with a win in 2019 with the Nationals and a loss this past season with the Yankees. He is also a four-time All-Star, a five-time Silver Slugger in the outfield, and five-time finisher in the Top-10 of voting for MVP, including being third this last season in the American League.<\/p>\n
