The Dodgers met with Soto on Tuesday in Southern California, following the Mets in a progression of teams offering the 26-year-old slugger their best pitches before he makes his final decision.
Also among the franchises rumored to have interest in Soto are the Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays, Philadelphia Phillies and San Francisco Giants.
Several MLB analysts predict Soto will sign a contract of 10 years or more that could stretch well beyond the $600 million LeBatard mentioned. A handful of those experts’ projections tip the financial scales at more than $700 million over the life of the deal.
