What was Juan Soto supposed to say?
The biggest name by far on the free-agent market this winter in Major League Baseball had just lost the World Series with the New York Yankees, but with a big payday on the way no matter where he goes, Soto basically said he was open for business.
He was also spotted taking a moment in the dugout at Yankee Stadium and pointing to the sky. You can read into any of this any way you want to, but it all makes sense for the superstar as he prepares to hear from anyone — including the Yankees — who wants his services.
Juan Soto was asked if he expects the Mets to go after him in free agency:
"I don't know what's the teams that are going to come after me. Definitely, I'll be open to this and every single team. I don't have any doors closed. I"m gonna be available for all 30 teams pic.twitter.com/3VICeWeney

Juan Soto was the last player to leave the dugout, pointing to the sky in thanks before departing. Was this his last moment in a Yankees uniform? pic.twitter.com/8lnvw15wvs
