I don’t know what I’m missing, but I don’t see it in Soto! He’s not an intimidating hitter. I’ll keep it all the way real as a Dodgers fan.. I think Tatis is more dangerous!
Calling Soto not intimidating, when he stares down pitchers more than anybody, hits .290+, .400+ OBP, can hit 40+ HR might be the stupidest thing I’ll hear this week, and I’m on the internet more often than not.
He has some preference I'm sure. No one knows how much he would leave in the table. But if there is only a $15mil difference, he goes to his preferred team.
The spirit of the auction-fast and transparent-is good. I’m all for it. But it won’t work because there are too many other dimensions like deferrals, incentives, opt outs, etc.
With all this technology and analytics information accessible to basically anyone, I'm not sure why agents get what they get paid in negotiations. When teams already have all the players' info they need. 😂
Agents do thousands of things that you don’t even think about. That’s why. The players live a more headache/comfortable life because the agents do pretty much everything for them. That’s why they pay them.
@youtubeconnollyfamily Let me clarify sorry. Yes player needs an agent to a degree. I was speaking more for the teams, not the player. Meaning, I don't think that with what I said, the player and agent have an advantage anymore. Before, when this info wasn't available, yeah, but not now.
I believe shohei ohtani told the dodgers to go after juan soto, cause that was the reason he signed with them with deferred money so they could build a super team
David, I tune in with great interest whenever you are on Sportsnet with Jeff and Kevin. My understanding is that the Jays have met with Soto, yet they are not mentioned. I get that CDN teams - Jays and Raptors - are ignored by US media outlets, but you? You, David? Say it ain’t so.
I think no one should meet Soto’s contract expectations. Dan Patrick is right. He’s not THAT good. Cashman should hold a press conference to say no we aren’t doing it. This endless greed and seeking money over championships & competitive rosters is childish…
The Phillies have already offered him from what I heard about 650 million for about 10 years. But of course this is all just speculation. I can’t see the Phillies being able to afford him with their current payroll being so high already.
I believe all of us are just so sick and tired of Boras. He will fail his free agents, again, this off season. Just look, nobody’s talking about Soto: they’re all talking about Boras. I wouldn’t want to have Boras as my agent no more.
I can see MLB go on strike. Teams losing there RSN deals. Also Ohtani is such a bad deal for baseball. Ohtani didn't nothing wrong. But for the business for baseball it bad.
How exactly is the Ohtani contract bad for baseball? They won the WS in his first season and their returns far exceed the initial investment in him. Ratings are through the roof for MLB. Players are making more than ever across the league. Yes RSN’s are being restructured and will look different but no one is losing money.
The reason Ohtani Contract looks bad. Cause not all teams can defer 97% of $700 million till the contract over. You never see Minnesota, Cleveland could never to have ability from financial standpoint. And if over 90% teams can't do that. Then it unfair as a whole. That was I see a strike. Cause the union say why not. Cause the players get paid. But it is issue. I see ownership putting there feet down on that. Plus RSN are ask relief for MLB. And MLB try do start up of there own TV streaming. And not all teams are on board.
@ I’m still at a loss for how this is bad for small market teams. They don’t all spend money and many owners neglect their teams altogether. They refuse to invest even a little to improve even though they see the parity in the league with the WC format. Once a team gets in anything is possible. Big market teams haven’t had a monopoly on the World Series. This is the first time in 40 years the Yankees and Dodgers have met in the WS. If these owners paid the slightest attention to their franchises they’d have a shot. Can’t penalize and blame the Dodgers for investing in their team and fans in order to give them a good product. More teams should be going this. Though they may not all be able to do it to the same degree they can do something. They just refuse to.
.CASHMAN SEND BORAS PACKING. GET ALL THESE FREE AGENTS AND FORGET ABOUT SOTO.BURNES,SASAKI,SNELL,BREGMEN,FRIED,SANTANDER,ALONSO,WILLY ADAMS,WALKER,TEOSCAR HERNANDEZ,650 MILLION COULD SIGN SOME OF THESE PLAYER AND MAKE THE YANKEES WAY BETTER.WITH SOTO YOULL HAVE ALOT OF POSITION TO FILL.
No ones going to win this as whoever signs him is going to be massively overpaying for 14 or 15 years a man who's only a really good hitter thats it he's average at best in the field and on the bases and he doesn't pitch at all let alone at an elite level like Ohtani does. Plus he doesn't bring in hundreds of millions maybe a billion dollars from another country like Shohei will.
that shelf about to snap
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Its carrying his head
😂😂😂
All the billionaire owners in a room salivating with blank checks fighting each other for free agents would make a great special for Netflix

Soto is slightly better in the box then tatis. More power, more walks, and honestly even more hits
He will go to the team that gives him the most money. No matter who it is
So the Mets
He has some preference I'm sure. No one knows how much he would leave in the table. But if there is only a $15mil difference, he goes to his preferred team.
@@EAChronic Yup, definitely going to the Mets in my opinion, but the question is, is he going to do another 1-year deal or a 10-year deal?
@@abad-enoughdude._.3919 I think and hope that his preference and the team to give him the most will be the Mets
@@soulpancake459 he never signed a one year deal. Only just finished his arbitration period.
The spirit of the auction-fast and transparent-is good. I’m all for it.
But it won’t work because there are too many other dimensions like deferrals, incentives, opt outs, etc.
Would be hilarious if Reinsdorf and the White Sox offer $5 more than the Mets, Dodgers and Yankees. Boras always takes every last dollar.
eBay auction should be the new way for ever! Gold!
I love the "subtle" digs at the Angels at 8:14
Jays fan here. David, you forgot to mention Jays as a sucker! 😅

@ oh I get your point. Yeah, that makes sense.
Haha Sampson I would never use the kardashians as a sales point to an mlb free agent.
I used to be an Angels fan....we had two of the best players in baseball and we never made it to one playoff game!
“Bookoff Cookoff,” is the proper term.
The RFK is brutal!
This dave guy is odd....

The more they bid, they will keep pushing the price up.
The Soto sweepstackes.
The winner will be the team that takes a pass.
I think no one should meet Soto’s contract expectations. Dan Patrick is right. He’s not THAT good. Cashman should hold a press conference to say no we aren’t doing it. This endless greed and seeking money over championships & competitive rosters is childish…
This guy is a funny bad comedian
If he signs with the Dodgers that will lead to a salary cap
I have a wait and see Dodgers will not actually sign any top free agent that is represented by Scott Boris.
This vid is the worst yet on this... HOLY YIKES...
But you watched..lol
The Phillies have already offered him from what I heard about 650 million for about 10 years. But of course this is all just speculation. I can’t see the Phillies being able to afford him with their current payroll being so high already.
Dombroski makes BAD decisions. 650 works for SOME teams. Phillies are pushing it with 2 300 plus contracts
Mets ..baby.....Uncle Steve
Your description reminds me of any new business presentation. Kind of stressed me out! 🙂
Probably Athletics right?
I believe all of us are just so sick and tired of Boras. He will fail his free agents, again, this off season. Just look, nobody’s talking about Soto: they’re all talking about Boras. I wouldn’t want to have Boras as my agent no more.
Hes goin to la

Dodgers they spending more money😮
BORE ASSS. Ripping off more owners for hundreds of millions
The Dodgers need an outfielder. They will get Soto. They have more money and resources than any team in baseball. That is all that matters.
If the White Sox offer 800 million, he goes to them.
Goes flying to them
Phillies 💯
There’s something wrong with Baseball. There should be a limit for every team to spend so none of this happens.
No, it's not the teams fault that some billionaires are cheap.
Lmaooo ok socialist
Why not just pick a team out of a hat and do that?
@@EAChronic ahhhh Noooo
