here's my thing, almost every player in that padres clubhouse defends manny, and as soon as soto left the clubhouse the chemistry was fixed. there is no way soto wasn't the problem in that clubhouse.
soto is all about himself, he's not a leader, it won't matter on the mets though cuz lindors the leader just like how judge was the leader on the yankees. All of mannys teammates have loved him, and all his teammates on the padres love him. When soto left nyy he didn't even speak to a single ex teammate on the yankees, guys he was so called "close" with.
There was tension with AJ Preller and Bob Melvin, Manny and Soto. The whole clubhouse was in shambles, not just the players. Then the new management with mike schildt. I think he humbled Manny and created him to be the leader of that team, during the NLDS Manny gathered the dugout to have a in game team meeting. Afterwards you see both Mike and Manny going straight into talking and embracing eachother after they won the game!
Soto didn't jive well with the club. There's actually a video of him kicking Tatis as well. Say what you want about Tatis but he shouldn't have had another teammate kick him. Honestly tho it seems that Bob Melvin may have been more of a problem than Soto, since Melvin is more of a hands-off type manager
Soto kinda reminds me of Bonds in a way where it's all about him. Can't imagine it wouldn't cause friction. Machado changed when he hit SD...became more team oriented.
I don’t see the resemblance. Pitchers hated Soto for his shuffle at home plate, manny is hated for picking fights over the smallest things and trying to cheat or purposely hurt players. He hasn’t really done any of that since signing with the padres but people still remember.
@@BubbaStylefly Machado is Dominican. Both his parents are Dominicans, which means even though he was born here, he was raised with Dominican customs. Dominicans are born wherever they want lol
@@WanerPena what an awful and racist point of view. According to the US he's American, according to the DR he's American. An American is a person born in America whether you like their heritage or not. People like you make me sick
@@WanerPenajust because your “parents are born there “ doesn’t mean you are from there He Is American Just With Dominican Heritage lol not so hard to comprehend
Something not really mentioned here is how Bob Melvin was very hands off as a manager. I'm not saying that's a bad thing but when you have several big stars on a team you have to kinda intervene and reign them in a little bit.
Given the fact he still hasn’t talked to his Yankee teammates since the season ended I’m pretty sure Soto was the issue over the last few years Machado has matured a lot and is very well respected by all padre players even Tatis Jr after they got into that argument like two years ago
If there was just bad chemistry in that clubhouse, honestly it would definitely explain that legendary 2023 collapse. I’m not a Padres fan and my jaw dropped when they didn’t make the playoffs w/ that lineup.
@ I know manny is too, but just saying Soto was a diva when leaving Nat’s, then now comes out he had beef at padres, also there was dramas at Yankees and something about box suites, and we’ll see how he is at Mets 😂
Nah that was a huge overpay that got so high cause they had the richest owner in baseball in a bidding war. Max I would’ve gave him $500-$600 million Ohtani should’ve been the cap in contract signing because he’s elite in pitching and hitting
I think the issue here is Soto, last year the chemistry in the Padres was great and all teammates talk well about Machado. Soto has an ego that not everybody will be able to handle, I hope he changes that if he wants to get along for a long time with other people.
Can we not forget that every team Soto was on wanted to keep him on the team? The Nationals offered him 440 which he turned down, Padres former owner wanted him to stay but died and then he got traded, and the Yankees offered him the highest contract they've offered to any player in years. Soto decided to leave all those places. Now he's ticked off Yankee fans so he's got a reputation problem lol. He just went for the best contract, it wasn't important for him to stay a Yankee. We don't need to search for excuses as to why he didn't stay. Ya'll are REACHING.
Wao, I remember when Machado was the most hated man in baseball when he was in Baltimore. I think people are just blowing things out of proportion about Soto just because he was smart about business.
Where is this narrative that Soto is this bad person coming from lol? Never heard this with the Nats , and I’m sure he wasn’t as connected with the Padres probably because he knew he wouldn’t be there for long and let’s not pretend Manny is some angel. Yankees are a product of bitterness from fans because he went to the “little brother”. If you got the contract and perks he got you also would’ve dashed over there. Cause at the end of the day both teams have no recent championship to their name .
Nobody says he’s a bad person. If you watched his post game interviews in San Diego you would understand why the fans thought there was a problem. That didn’t seem to be the case with the Yankees. They all were getting along and talked about it all year. It’s pretty clear Soto wanted to be the main guy though. Aside from the money.
@ the comments are definitely implying he’s not who people think he is and that he’s selfish granted idk him but it seems random to say after he signs his contract. . I’ve watched some of his postgame interviews and yea he did make snarky remarks but what player doesn’t . And I don’t think he cares about actually being the main if that was the case he would stayed with the Nats … he’s definitely not going to be the “main guy” with lindor lol .
Wait whuh? How can u say he didnt connect with teammates in san diego because he knew he wouldnt be there yet call _Yankee fans toxic ect? If anything the same thing was even more true for his stay with _Yankees. The thing is, Yankee fans forget that he was a rental, he didnt owe anything to stay and that there is no lock that he would buy into the pinstripe traditions and want any of that. There is nothing wrong with him wanting top dollar. A once in a lifetime betting war between billionaire owners and groups occured at the exact moment he was a free agent, with the billionaire owner wanting to make a statement with the signing. And he is a diva...he does not want to be second fiddle and his choice of choosing the Mets exemplifies this
In the first year after Shohei Ohtani signed a big contract with the Dodgers, he set a personal record in history and won the world championship. I don’t know what kind of historical records Soto, who signed a big contract with the Mets in the next year, can set. Let’s wait and see if he can help the Mets win the world championship in the first year after joining.
Unpopular opinion here. I miss the days when pitchers had stones like Ryan and Johnson. I have never been a fan of Machado personally, but Soto needs more than a few high and tight to cure that stupid fucking shuffle from his system.
Ummm. So what the heck was stanton on The Yankees? Chop liver? Yeah, most of the time he gets injured. But to say it was just Judge and soto hitting. When stanton is clearly Mr October almost every post season and Won MVP for that Cleveland series to help the Yankees get to The WS. Is disrespectful. He was the main reason they even made it that far. Not soto. Soto has proved he's money hungry and all about himself.
Manny also clashed with Tatis that season. They may have had it coming, but Machado's style does rub some people the wrong way. Doesn't take anything away from him being a great player. That season, Melvin did a poor job of keeping that clubhouse on track. Last season, Shildt proved he was the right guy for the job, and Tatis grew up. Moving Soto was addition by subtraction.
I always thought soto didn't like being with the Padres, definitely not a great clubhouse and tatis getting caught on roids and went for 40-50 homers to 20 lol probably doesn't help
Plus, their financials are in shambles, and he's likely to get overworked. I want him to go to a team that can nurture him with patience and do the right thing when he comes up for arbitration in 3 years.
I'm gonna get some heat.. but there's probably a reason why the dodgers don't have any big dominican signings on their team. A lot of these guys come with big ego's. Even going back to Big Papi and Pedro Martinez. Amazing players. But ego's for sure.
@@cali2491the reason why teoscar fits right in was cause he one of the many who left his ego out the door. He always happy that’s why he worked out in the dodgers clubhouse.
@@cali2491yeah teoscar is a happy guy but during the WBC there was a ego issue in the Dominican clubhouse all the players high paid athletes like jean segura had to deal with being benched. Devers couldn't be benched despite not hitting at all he was going 0-3 -04.manager still wouldn't bench him.
That Machado impression tells you everything you need to know about Roki not going to the Padres. All of Japan was rooting agaisnt the Padres when they played the Dodgers. And then the Padres acted like clowns too
@@Volcanics25 Riki should definitely go to the Dodgers and have the team throw out his arm like everyone that comes there. Take the money by any means necessary
Not surprised to hear Soto and Machado might not have gotten along Machado’s history of clubhouse drama is well-documented. Chemistry matters, and it seems like the Padres’ culture issues held them back for years. Soto in New York will be interesting; let's see if he and Lindor click better!
Soto clicks with Starling Marte that's who's been trying to recruit Soto for over a year you see marte get close to Soto at the all star break homerun derby
@@jessygarci Fair point... Soto was in the Bronx before, but being with the Mets now feels like a fresh start. Every star player comes with their challenges, but I think the dynamic with Lindor and the Mets' clubhouse could be different. Time will tell!
@@Tonyconstanza Marte has definitely been in Soto’s corner, and that connection could make a big difference in the Mets' clubhouse chemistry. Let’s see how that friendship translates on the field!
Manny is a low key guy. Leads by example most of the time. Are we sure it wasn’t Tatis that he had a problem with? Manny is an easy target due to his past behaviors.
I think Soto would’ve had a better career with NY. Aaron Judge is level headed and a true captain like Jeter and Soto would’ve been the pure talent like A-Rod and would’ve complimented each other well.
Thank God 🙏 Dodgers didn't sign Juan Soto!! He would not fit in that LA club house. Soto signed for the Money , Teoscar would sign for the Dodgers because he loves the team and LA !! Bring Teo back 💪 we need his bat in that line Up.
It's hilarious that Manny thinks he's a captain and that Tatis thinks he's not a cheater. It's actually hilarious that a few people think the Padres is a well run organization.
@Zyron22 He cheated. His stats and his suspension shows you that. His high batting average before getting caught, then after he got caught and served his suspension, his batting average magically drops by 80%. Yeah, your boi a cheater 100%.
Let's not forget the epic failure Bob Melvin was with the Padres. He completely failed the '23 Padres. He never got a control on the issues the clubhouse had and it spiraled. Schildt quickly corrected that and the less talented '24 Padres were way better off. Soto ended the year with good numbers for the Padres but most were number padding late in the year when they were out of the race. Good luck Mets. Great hitter. But something isn't right there.
Padres will have a hard time bringing in any big free agents alongside Machado. Machado not exactly what you would call a class act. Him opting out and resigning also hurt them immensely. 10 years 350 million of a sub 800 ops isn’t exactly a recipe for a dynasty.
You guys need to stop bashing Manny Soto is not a class act and this is from other teammates from other teams who had issues with him not only players on the Padres team!
I know someone that looks just like him he was my cousins ex husband he's a military sergeant guys a nut starts yelling at his mother took his kids off his will says he will see them in hell 😂
The team chemistry was off because Soto likely was playing up for his future big contract. His eyes on the prize. Manny being Manny also played role in the friction. After all as he was brought to be team leader and Soto probably didn’t care to be subservient.
Marchado is the #1 jerk and dirty player(ruined Pedroia's career), but also Judge is no class player either. I remember he was a complete idiot when he was playing a PLAY OFF game in Boston, blasting his boom box playing *NY NY*, and they lost the game with Stanton crying he hit a HR but the wall stopped it.
Seriously comparing judge as No class because he played NY, NY..That's a reach! No one has ever complain about judge having no class. As a matter of fact they say he should have a little bit more of a mean streak in him. Maybe they'll actually get over the hump in The playoffs.
I have to laugh at all of this! I am an Athletics fan, and I think Soto's new salary for a single season might be higher than the Athletics whole payroll. Soto sounds like he brings grief wherever he goes. He has been on how many teams, and now he is signed to one for 15 years? Any bets on how long this will last? I have been following baseball for nearly 50 years, and the absurdity of today's game never ceases to amaze me.
EXACTLY! I couldn't agree with you more-finally... someone who gets it! I don't have any respect whatsoever for crybabies and selfish individuals who they the world owes them something-especially when he's getting paid millions yet publicly refuses to give his all on the playing field!
Was. He's a leader now. Soto was an issue, obviously: the chemistry in 2024 was AMAZING. The new manager was much better as well. Two divas, Soto and Hader gone, and two team players (Merrill and Profar) added along with Schilt. Issues SOLVED.
Still stuck with pre 2019 Manny eh? He’s grown drastically since his time either SD. His own clubhouse speak well and highly of him. Yeah I’ll admit it he was an a-hole before(was worried about his attitude when we signed him ngl) but he’s matured and grown up since he’s been a Padre. You cant just focus on someone’s past and completely ignore the good after. How would you feel if that were the case for you?
I read that Yu Darvish and Machado actually have a really great relationship on the Padres, at least thats what Yu said in an interview. I wouldn't expect Soto and Machado to get along as they both have a large ego. Darvish also said that when he was in Texas, they gave him a hard time because he had his own routines and for a rookie, that was a big deal.
Apparently? Any one with half a brain could see the dynamic between Soto, Machado, and Tatis Jr. was off and that dysfunction translated into poor team chemistry and therefore they underachieved.
vibes were terrible in 23 bob melvin couldnt do anything to fix it, player only meetings didnt seem to solve anything, 24 schildt is manager minus soto, vibes are fixed team is cohesive and complete, 21 manny big bro'd tatis and tatis came out the better for it, manny probably tried to do the same with soto and he proabably didnt take it to heart.
That japanese machado impression was great

Seems kinda like Soto is the common thread with all these clubhouse disagreements 🤷♂️
Nationals, Padres, Yankees, now Mets. That’s 4 teams way too early in a career. Big red flag.

Schildt quickly corrected that and the less talented '24 Padres were way better off. Soto ended the year with good numbers for the Padres but most were number padding late in the year when they were out of the race. Good luck Mets. Great hitter. But something isn't right there.
Machado is a punk to
I'd add Tatis and Profar that list. Bunch of strutting peacocks
The dodgers fans are worsr
@Zyron22nobody talking about the fans lil bro
@Zyron22ah yes cuz the padre fans are so much classier lmao did you forget padre fans also threw beers at bellinger not too long ago?
I will remind you of what the fans did in game 2 of the NLDS
they dont like each other bc theyre the same person
Very odd that SD got better without Soto the next season... team chemistry is crucial...
Padres will have a hard time bringing in any big free agents alongside Machado. Machado not exactly what you would call a class act. Him opting out and resigning also hurt them immensely. 10 years 350 million of a sub 800 ops isn’t exactly a recipe for a dynasty.
They probably didn’t get along because Soto was too much of a diva to listen to Manny
Padres could have easily signed Soto for $500 M and traded Machado. I would have taken Soto over Machado.
You guys need to stop bashing Manny Soto is not a class act and this is from other teammates from other teams who had issues with him not only players on the Padres team!
sounds like Soto is the problem, he had beef with 2-3 players with the Yankees organization
So what about the reports of Soto not liking Judge being a Trump supporter & it was a factor for leaving?
Manny was the problem, hence why the padres 2024 season was so much better than 2023
It's not Machado, it's not Yankees, it's Soto. I honestly think he is psychopath, he got the eyes.
I know someone that looks just like him he was my cousins ex husband he's a military sergeant guys a nut starts yelling at his mother took his kids off his will says he will see them in hell 😂
They deserved each other
When Manny was in Bmore he was a total head case...dirty player...zero integrity...and not a team player. SOTO is the opposite of Manny...
Kevin Acee is not with the Athletic, he is with the San Diego Tribune
The team chemistry was off because Soto likely was playing up for his future big contract. His eyes on the prize. Manny being Manny also played role in the friction. After all as he was brought to be team leader and Soto probably didn’t care to be subservient.
Marchado is the #1 jerk and dirty player(ruined Pedroia's career), but also Judge is no class player either. I remember he was a complete idiot when he was playing a PLAY OFF game in Boston, blasting his boom box playing *NY NY*, and they lost the game with Stanton crying he hit a HR but the wall stopped it.
Oh yeah you saw that?
@@Platerpus7 I did, in live action.
Seriously comparing judge as No class because he played NY, NY..That's a reach! No one has ever complain about judge having no class. As a matter of fact they say he should have a little bit more of a mean streak in him. Maybe they'll actually get over the hump in The playoffs.
@@jessygarci He was not a class act after that play off game, that was 4yrs ago now, hopefully he grew up, Stanton never will.
No doubt Machado called Soto on his diva bullshit.
This makes Juan Soto extremely likable actually…
Soto, Machado, And Tatis...Oh My! 😮
More like Oh My NOT!!! Bam! Get Roasted 💪
(I'm a Lifelong Angels Fan, please forgive my outbursts) 😂😅😂
Both are similar regarding attitude.. makes sense.
I have to laugh at all of this! I am an Athletics fan, and I think Soto's new salary for a single season might be higher than the Athletics whole payroll. Soto sounds like he brings grief wherever he goes. He has been on how many teams, and now he is signed to one for 15 years? Any bets on how long this will last? I have been following baseball for nearly 50 years, and the absurdity of today's game never ceases to amaze me.
@@McDago100 you are soooo right! Soto might make 3-4 years before they unload him again. He’s a trouble maker period
Who does like manny tho???
A lot of people bud
@@lilspliffster88 ME
Not surprised at all
Machado is always the toxic player at the locker room no matter where he goes.
EXACTLY! I couldn't agree with you more-finally... someone who gets it! I don't have any respect whatsoever for crybabies and selfish individuals who they the world owes them something-especially when he's getting paid millions yet publicly refuses to give his all on the playing field!
He also has a ring while Machado and Judge will never sniff one.
Was. He's a leader now. Soto was an issue, obviously: the chemistry in 2024 was AMAZING. The new manager was much better as well. Two divas, Soto and Hader gone, and two team players (Merrill and Profar) added along with Schilt. Issues SOLVED.
He changed bro
Still stuck with pre 2019 Manny eh? He’s grown drastically since his time either SD. His own clubhouse speak well and highly of him. Yeah I’ll admit it he was an a-hole before(was worried about his attitude when we signed him ngl) but he’s matured and grown up since he’s been a Padre. You cant just focus on someone’s past and completely ignore the good after. How would you feel if that were the case for you?
I read that Yu Darvish and Machado actually have a really great relationship on the Padres, at least thats what Yu said in an interview. I wouldn't expect Soto and Machado to get along as they both have a large ego. Darvish also said that when he was in Texas, they gave him a hard time because he had his own routines and for a rookie, that was a big deal.
One's the real deal the other is a fraud.
Who is which ?
He don’t have to get along with machado or anyone. He gets paid the big bucks to hit the ball and field the ball not be friends
Manny was way worse that dude had to get humbled he burned almost every bridge in the AL and NL lol
Apparently? Any one with half a brain could see the dynamic between Soto, Machado, and Tatis Jr. was off and that dysfunction translated into poor team chemistry and therefore they underachieved.
Where can I find that Japanese clip of them making fun of Machado? 😂
The only one who gets along with Manny is Manny and that's questionable at times. He's just a jerk!
Soto just seems detached to me. Never seems apart of his team.
Soto doesn’t like the west cost
He likes the East Cost NL New York
Is what he likes
`That MM impression was spot on
Dude Soto is the problem! This guys doesn’t know what he is talking about ! Literally this guys is fake
Jackson Merrill is the reason why
Jackson Merrill is gonna be hell of a leader. I just don’t see him in SD long term.
Makes total sense the Dodgers decided not to re-sign him after half a season with the Dodgers.
Seeing 2022 Soto and 2024 Soto, dude has put on the pounds. Not looking good for the Mets.
I am not a Mercado fan. He’s a jerk.
Manny Machado looks like someone that doesn't get along with anyone
He's arrogant but he's toned it down a bit
vibes were terrible in 23 bob melvin couldnt do anything to fix it, player only meetings didnt seem to solve anything, 24 schildt is manager minus soto, vibes are fixed team is cohesive and complete, 21 manny big bro'd tatis and tatis came out the better for it, manny probably tried to do the same with soto and he proabably didnt take it to heart.
