The first time things changed was when Cohen bought The Mets, then he went crazy and threw money at Verlander and Scherzer trying to quick-fix, which blew up in his face. The second time things changed was when David Sterns was hired. He knows how to spend the kind of money Steve Cohen provides in smarter ways. Now this particular signing of Soto was all Steve Cohen, I'm sure Sterns wasn't all-in on spending this much, but was fine with taking a back seat, letting Cohen go and get his player. Now David Sterns will take over from here and I trust him to build a world series capable roster from here on out.
Come on Met fans. You know you'll always be second fiddle to the Yanks. You got a good hitter in Soto that you paid way to much for. Only guy worth that money is Ohtani. Mets wanna be the Yankees so bad. Unfortunately you'll never have as many championships, or worldwide recognition.Mets and Jets are all hype and no substance. Every year it's the same. Blah, blah, blah.
Evan was hysterically over the moon when the Mets got Scherzer. And Verlander. And Showalter. He was ecstatic when the Jets got Rodgers. I hope it works out for him this time.
Soto is only 25 years old and just entering his prime. Go cry over Judge’s MVP performance in the post season. Who carried the Yankee offense? Soto. But hey, you still have Judge. 😂😂😂
All these yankee fans salty as hell 🤣 😂. BUT if u got soto you'd be hype. !!! And who cares about 27 championships. Most of these fake yankee fans didn't even see those.
@@qasimabdullah7171 if we got Soto for the $760 million and couldn’t fill any other holes, and god forbid we gave him what yall gave him with the opt out too I’d be LIVID. You can’t accept that tho, you want to pretend that Yankees fans are crying and upset all day…because that’s what little brothers do.
Any Yankee fan overreacting to Juan Soto going to the Mets is being absurdly and patently ridiculous. "Biggest blow since the 2004 collapse!" Get over yourself. It was great to have him play the 2024 season in the Bronx and it would've been nice to retain him. But it didn't happen. Congrats to the Mets. Next. The Yankees now have money to spend on getting the team back on track. I'm OK with not spending almost $800m on a 2-tool player. Yes, he is magnificent with those 2 tools but he's not worth that kind of money, especially when the team needs 1B, 3B, 2 OF and a couple of pitchers.
I don't know why any yankee fan would be upset they didn't spend 1 billion dollars on one guy. Congrats to the mets for having the richest owner in baseball. It doesn't guarantee anything, as any yankee fan can tell you.
I’m relieved the Yankees didn’t re sign Soto. Did we really want to pay the guy 50 mill a year in perpetuity? What will really matter is what the Yankees do to respond. They have a unique opportunity to build a winner the right way. Spread that money around and fill the holes so we can get back on top.
It's true. With that 750 million you were gonna spend on one guy you can really get some solid ball players to fill holes. Baseball isn't about one player. It's a complete team. If the Mets feel he's the missing piece then it's the right move. If the Mets are sacrificing other positions to get Soto then it's a terrible move. We will see how this ends up.
And what way is that? What collection of players do you want that will be better than Soto? And why was it Soto and nothing else? It won’t be for the Mets…
Days you never forget… the day the Mets were saddled with a $765 mil bill over the next 15 years. The trouble is Evan speaks like a Mets fan, and thinks Yankees fans think the same.
No one in his right mind would spend that kind of money on one single player. Attending a Mets' game will cost more for a family that is already struggling to survive. Allow me to put a curse on the Mets' team and the owner.

His lifetime OBP is over .400. Not many players average .421 OBP and .953 OPS every year. As to RBI, 109 RBIs out of the #2 spot in the order is highly impressive.
@@drlongus8321 No one is irreplaceable. Babe Ruth left the Yankees after 1934, and the Yankees won four consecutive championships from 1936-1939. Point is that Soto is a tremendous offensive player. Describing him as just another .280/35/100 guy is selling his offensive ability very short.
ANCIENT HISTORY. You keep living in the past and the future will no longer include you. Mets swept Yankees last year when you had Soto and the Mets did not. Mets performed better against the Dodgers than the Yankees did. I was going to watch the Yankees winning a world series but I cannot find a Betamax to play it on.
After 27 championships and the Mets only 2, when the Mets are going good, the Yankees don't exsist in NYC. Soto saw it 1st hand both teams were good last year, and Lindor and the Mets run dominated the back pages😢😂😂😂
@@Thurmanatr16 , c'mon. At least Dykstra wasn't juicing yet. And Carter the choir boy was clean. There was just daily fights over the coke spoon with Mex, Doc, and Darryl. Everyone else was a different kind of hot mess
I think the Mets fans should focus more on the Dodgers, Braves and Phillies…and maybe winning a World Series this century. 😂 they can’t help but let the little bro vibes out.
Soto just committed career suicide. He will end his career as just a MET.... not a legend. Juan Soto is going to be regretting this for 15 years and beyond even with all that money. Because the METS will never win the world series for at least 15 years. The curse of Juan Soto. Let's leave this comment here for at least 15 years.
Bro I’m a Yankee fan but cmon w that. Like there are no legends who aren’t Yankees? Get out of here. Would he have had a better career in LA or NYY? Probably but he will still be a legend.
Well, when you pay that much money to one player your basically saying he's the missing piece. From here on in its either championship or failure for the Mets.
Except the 60s, half of the 70s and ALL of the 80s. Also when the Yankees did have the town to themselves ( after 57) and actually drew less crowds. 😂😂😂
He definitely could be Like Jordan! Especially with the "Soto Shuffle" "Air Jordan". Soto Shuffle could definitely brand! I believe Soto is going to have his best year! Did you know he always wanted to play for the Mets? Even when he was a National...he always wanted to be a Mets! By the way his OPS is 1.175 average with 12 Home Runs! It's definitely one of his best fields also!!!!

LOL, all this crowing!! Speaking for myself only, I ALWAYS wanted Soto to sign elsewhere. Too much money to spend on one player when there are other areas need to be addressed. Congratulations Mets, hopefully this helps bring a title for the first time in 38 years lol. The Yankees will be fine, no tears shed here.
Mets don’t get a World Series out of this this would be the most laughing stock franchise in MLB history lets alone so bad they just move to New Jersey. Worse than the Subway World Series loss.
Signing Soto is the easy part... Actual winning the Series is something different. Its will be 39 years since the Mets got The Final Out of the season.
Now that STEVE COHEN,not STEARNS signed JUAN SOTO, they have to round out the cast around JUAN SOTO by re-signing home grown durable PETE ALONSO and MANAEA, sign premier starter CORBIN BURNES and either TANNER SCOTT or JEFF HOFFMAN. Then trade for GARRET CROCHET. TO MAKE THIS PISSIBLE STEARNS HAS TO THROW AWAY HIS MINI MARKET/MONEY BALL PHILOSOPHY.
Ok cohen dont stop now get the best 2 pitchers left and give trevor bauer a contract as well keep it going another 300 mil on pitchers and were ready to roll
As a Mets fan, I was hoping he wouldn't come here. Now I am _really_ hoping he opts out and leaves after five years. When will people learn that signing superstars is not how teams win in baseball? Evan brought up ARod. How did that work out for the Rangers? They lost 100 games year after year. And the Mariners got better without him. Look at the Padres last year vs two years ago. Better without Soto. He is top offensive player who can't field and can't run the bases. I guess the next five years may be okay, but I really hope he's gone afterwards.
The Mets need pitching… not a $765 million outfielder… could have used the money for so much more… this doesn’t automatically punch your ticket to the World Series…⚾️
Clowning in sports never ends. It just changes. Now clowning fot the Mets will be more like the clowning the Yankees always absorb. Championship expectations are exactly that Now the expectation is the W.S. Full stop. No more plucky, scrappy underdog good vibes. That’s all over. Making the playoffs is no longer a good season. A division title is no longer a good season. All of that is now the bare minimum. As a life long Yankee fan, I feel more relief than joy when they win they won their titles. That’s due to the expectation. If they won, they were supposed to. If the lost, lol they suck and can’t even win when they spend all of that $. As a Knicks and Giants fan, I also know the other end of the fan experience. For me I have enjoyed those teams success, when they have it, more than I ever have w/ the Yanks. Expectations drive it all. SBXLII is the greatest sporting fan moment of my life. Why? Because NYG pulled of a miracle. There’s no greater feeling in sports fandom for me than when my squad proves ‘em all wrong and beats the odds.
He played for us for 1 year. It really isn’t that big of a deal he’s gone. We can now spend all of that money that we thought about giving him to multiple other players. Yanks will be fine.
Hope Yankees enjoyed the championships. And the George years of being the big spenders. Uncle Steve has more money to spend on free agents, player development, and amenities. Mets will always outbid the Yankees. Mets are the Yankees daddy now. Going to enjoy Soto play like a hall of gamer. 😊
It’s not like they signed Judge. Soto is a great player and he will be missed, but he’s not THAT good. That kind of money will tie up the organization for years.
Is the Soto contract an overpay? Yeah probably. Are the Mets in a better spot long term giving that overpay than they would be if they didn’t sign Soto? Yes, definitely. Therefore it was the correct decision. Not everything is a math equation. Sometimes overpays are worth it. The Mets are in a better spot today long term than they were yesterday. Not that complicated.
Ya seem to forget. The owner knows about stocks. He made so much money when trump got elected. Guess what he wasted his money on. Everybody getting signed. He def for the bag this quarter.
Thx for the 1 year Soto maybe he can get the Mets back to the series in 1 year any bets Mets fans? Oh now all the past comments on how the yanks buying players ? Shies on your foot now lol
Mets fans are like Jets fans....they always think they'll own the town when their teams make a big move. But sooner or later reality will always win and bring them down to earth. Sorry y'all will always be second rate in this town until proven otherwise. Lol
I agree with you buddy pujols was already washed up dats why cards let him walk soto is a different story he's has the best plate discipline in baseball
He great no question about I wanted so much but should we go home for the rest of the season no go make this a better team up and down the line up think 1996 superstars just a great team
True fact that they did this not even to win but to just spite the Yankees is plain pathetic. Y’all gonna get World Series blocked by Dodgers and Padres and Phillies and healthy Braves. Stay delusional Mets fans.
So what do you suggest the Mets do then? Just give up? Not try to build a good team because there are other good teams? Would they be more likely to beat the Dodgers if they didn’t sign Juan Soto? What are you even trying to argue? They absolutely signed Soto to try to win. Also, the Mets beat the Phillies in the playoffs last year WITHOUT Soto lmao

His lifetime OBP is over .400. Not many players average .421 OBP and .953 OPS every year. As to RBI, 109 RBIs out of the #2 spot in the order is highly impressive.
@@jimwerther good stats just not irreplaceable
@@drlongus8321
No one is irreplaceable. Babe Ruth left the Yankees after 1934, and the Yankees won four consecutive championships from 1936-1939. Point is that Soto is a tremendous offensive player. Describing him as just another .280/35/100 guy is selling his offensive ability very short.
@jimwerther well that is his stats unless you are hopeful he can get better
High fastball to the chin when he steps up to the plate at Yankee stadium.
Go touch grass and cope lol

27 to 2, 2009 to 1986. It will always be a Yankees town.
@@Mets_family *That's nice, but "funner" isn't a word, and the Mets are still goin' t' Met.* 😂
ANCIENT HISTORY. You keep living in the past and the future will no longer include you. Mets swept Yankees last year when you had Soto and the Mets did not. Mets performed better against the Dodgers than the Yankees did. I was going to watch the Yankees winning a world series but I cannot find a Betamax to play it on.
@@Mets_family METS won't be going to the world series for at least 15 years. So this acquisition just cursed you big time
After 27 championships and the Mets only 2, when the Mets are going good, the Yankees don't exsist in NYC. Soto saw it 1st hand both teams were good last year, and Lindor and the Mets run dominated the back pages😢😂😂😂
There's this great Jethro Tull song you ought to listen to... It's called "Living in the Past."
This is the loser mentality Evan has his teams never win championships so this is the ultimate high for him Can’t blame him though.
Cant wait for soto and the mets to disappoint much like Rodgers and the Jets
Is this a Beningo shadow account?
But wwwwwwwwaaaait! We have 27 world championships!! Lol
They do. Mets got some work to do
@Platerpus7 , but not as much as the Yankees now.
1986! The drug fueled 109 win season!!
@@Thurmanatr16 , c'mon. At least Dykstra wasn't juicing yet. And Carter the choir boy was clean. There was just daily fights over the coke spoon with Mex, Doc, and Darryl. Everyone else was a different kind of hot mess
And how many of those did you actually get to witness?? Mets didn't even exist for most of them😂
The Yankees I will forevermore remember how they lost a world series, then lost Soto.
Soto actually lost the Yankees. Soto will never win a world series with the Mets. Actually the Mets will never reach the world series ever again.
1986!
It’s the town of whoever wins
I think the Mets fans should focus more on the Dodgers, Braves and Phillies…and maybe winning a World Series this century. 😂 they can’t help but let the little bro vibes out.
They're like Jets fans. Talk, talk, talk, lose, lose lose lol.
@ most them are the same people haha. Miserable lot.
Soto just committed career suicide. He will end his career as just a MET.... not a legend. Juan Soto is going to be regretting this for 15 years and beyond even with all that money. Because the METS will never win the world series for at least 15 years. The curse of Juan Soto. Let's leave this comment here for at least 15 years.
Bro I’m a Yankee fan but cmon w that.
Like there are no legends who aren’t Yankees? Get out of here.
Would he have had a better career in LA or NYY? Probably but he will still be a legend.
Major League HATER!! 😂😂
Unless the Mets win any championship this signing means nothing.
You have to get good to win and that’s the goal
Well, when you pay that much money to one player your basically saying he's the missing piece. From here on in its either championship or failure for the Mets.
No matter what, this is always a Yankees town
no brother, not when the owner is worth 22 billion, this NY and money talks you know this, just let it be its our time.
Except the 60s, half of the 70s and ALL of the 80s. Also when the Yankees did have the town to themselves ( after 57) and actually drew less crowds. 😂😂😂
Damn Tiki...asking the question of questions?
They acting like this is the nba and they got prime Micheal Jordan
bro hes clutchesque like jordan world series champion hes not even 28 years old
Bro lmfao the Yankee fan is gon yankee fan 😂
What does this have to do with the nba and Michael Jordan??? Go watch basketball why are you here?
He definitely could be Like Jordan! Especially with the "Soto Shuffle" "Air Jordan". Soto Shuffle could definitely brand! I believe Soto is going to have his best year! Did you know he always wanted to play for the Mets? Even when he was a National...he always wanted to be a Mets! By the way his OPS is 1.175 average with 12 Home Runs! It's definitely one of his best fields also!!!!

LOL, all this crowing!! Speaking for myself only, I ALWAYS wanted Soto to sign elsewhere. Too much money to spend on one player when there are other areas need to be addressed. Congratulations Mets, hopefully this helps bring a title for the first time in 38 years lol. The Yankees will be fine, no tears shed here.
There's no such thing as a good billionaire
Well there's President Trump
@drlongus8321 exactly. He's trash personified.

@dougt.6415 Nah...he's amazing
If someone gave you a billion dollars, you'd automatically become a bad guy? Dumbest idea since "never trust anyone over 30".
Yankee fans should say to us, “it was fun while it lasted.”
😂😂
Met fans are embarrassing. I guess so much losing does that to you. Most Yankee fans aren't that affected by this in anyway.
Stop playing yourself🤣
Lies. Hang in there my guy
You clearly didn't listen to the callers. Yankee fans are much more upset than that I thought they would be
@cgtz9526 yeah those calls aren't screened.
Sure kiddo...😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mets don’t get a World Series out of this this would be the most laughing stock franchise in MLB history lets alone so bad they just move to New Jersey. Worse than the Subway World Series loss.
you still won't have Soto.....LMAO
Cope bozo 😭😭
@@AYjoy93 come here when you actually win one in this millennium. Your history record isn’t that well I like the odds
Cry harder kiddo...LGM!!!
That should shut you yankees fans up. The Mets is the team now. Wait theres more coming!!!
It's never worth paying $700M to pay someone to play baseball. It's ludicrous to me.
Signing Soto is the easy part...
Actual winning the Series is something different.
Its will be 39 years since the Mets got The Final Out of the season.
They lost severino; the starting pitching is not World Series caliber ( as of yet)
Now that STEVE COHEN,not STEARNS signed JUAN SOTO, they have to round out the cast around JUAN SOTO by re-signing home grown durable PETE ALONSO and MANAEA, sign premier starter CORBIN BURNES and either TANNER SCOTT or JEFF HOFFMAN. Then trade for GARRET CROCHET. TO MAKE THIS PISSIBLE STEARNS HAS TO THROW AWAY HIS MINI MARKET/MONEY BALL PHILOSOPHY.
You don't understand baseball. Sterns does.
Remember Aaron Rodgers/Jets and SB evan
Yea but they jets were nothing before him, mets are coming off nlcs appearance and trying ti improve not regress
If the Mets don’t resign Polar bear then this move is just stupid
If the Mets do sign Alonso then they're being stupid
I'm a Yankee fan, of course I'm upset. I wish Soto well, he was great in the short time he was a Yankee.
Yankees fans are celebrating the fact that this punk is gone forever.
Ok cohen dont stop now get the best 2 pitchers left and give trevor bauer a contract as well keep it going another 300 mil on pitchers and were ready to roll
As a Mets fan, I was hoping he wouldn't come here. Now I am _really_ hoping he opts out and leaves after five years. When will people learn that signing superstars is not how teams win in baseball? Evan brought up ARod. How did that work out for the Rangers? They lost 100 games year after year. And the Mariners got better without him. Look at the Padres last year vs two years ago. Better without Soto. He is top offensive player who can't field and can't run the bases. I guess the next five years may be okay, but I really hope he's gone afterwards.
The Mets need pitching… not a $765 million outfielder… could have used the money for so much more… this doesn’t automatically punch your ticket to the World Series…⚾️
#LGM
Clowning in sports never ends. It just changes. Now clowning fot the Mets will be more like the clowning the Yankees always absorb. Championship expectations are exactly that Now the expectation is the W.S. Full stop. No more plucky, scrappy underdog good vibes. That’s all over. Making the playoffs is no longer a good season. A division title is no longer a good season. All of that is now the bare minimum. As a life long Yankee fan, I feel more relief than joy when they win they won their titles. That’s due to the expectation. If they won, they were supposed to. If the lost, lol they suck and can’t even win when they spend all of that $. As a Knicks and Giants fan, I also know the other end of the fan experience. For me I have enjoyed those teams success, when they have it, more than I ever have w/ the Yanks. Expectations drive it all. SBXLII is the greatest sporting fan moment of my life. Why? Because NYG pulled of a miracle. There’s no greater feeling in sports fandom for me than when my squad proves ‘em all wrong and beats the odds.
Hi family
Yankee fans so sad. Awewww too bad. Hahahahhahahaha😂😂😂
We need to Sign Alonso
I hope we is the Mets. Yankees better not go near him
@@Platerpus7the Mets might sign him, but not as likely. I doubt Yanks would want him
50M a year minimum for Adam Dunne 2.0!
I want to part of Pete anymore. He is already on the downside, and his BA is disappearing. Let Pete walk.
Hey you can have him. You Mets will regret it
He played for us for 1 year. It really isn’t that big of a deal he’s gone. We can now spend all of that money that we thought about giving him to multiple other players. Yanks will be fine.
Great signing Soto but too bad you don't have ANY pitching.
Go back to sleep son...LGM!!!
Hope Yankees enjoyed the championships. And the George years of being the big spenders. Uncle Steve has more money to spend on free agents, player development, and amenities. Mets will always outbid the Yankees. Mets are the Yankees daddy now. Going to enjoy Soto play like a hall of gamer. 😊
The curse of Juan Soto has begun. No world series win for 15 years.... maybe more.
It was only 5 million difference damm
From yankees son to Dogers son. Nice!!!!
It’s not like they signed Judge. Soto is a great player and he will be missed, but he’s not THAT good. That kind of money will tie up the organization for years.
Is the Soto contract an overpay? Yeah probably.
Are the Mets in a better spot long term giving that overpay than they would be if they didn’t sign Soto? Yes, definitely. Therefore it was the correct decision.
Not everything is a math equation. Sometimes overpays are worth it. The Mets are in a better spot today long term than they were yesterday. Not that complicated.
Ya seem to forget. The owner knows about stocks. He made so much money when trump got elected. Guess what he wasted his money on. Everybody getting signed. He def for the bag this quarter.
Yankees will get much better players thank god.
Tikis right. Now go win something
😢😢😢
The Mets run nyc
Nah they don’t lmao. Not until they win something.
@@Platerpus7Mets are here buddy...
Thx for the 1 year Soto maybe he can get the Mets back to the series in 1 year any bets Mets fans? Oh now all the past comments on how the yanks buying players ? Shies on your foot now lol
God that Yankees guy , is so dramatic
Met shoud get bladimir guerrero
Mets 💪 ⚾️
Mets fans are like Jets fans....they always think they'll own the town when their teams make a big move. But sooner or later reality will always win and bring them down to earth. Sorry y'all will always be second rate in this town until proven otherwise. Lol
Vladimir Guerrero JR Evan, really? 😃
Mets will stil be the muts , next cano
Tiki such a herb, thank God giants won without him, yankee town 4ever , plus soto is 30 years old and on roids , 86' kid
Who cares let him go. We don't want that contract anyway.
Mets fans are going to find out what Angels fans felt when they signed Pujols. 🤣🤣
Soto ain't him understand he has a better understanding of the strike zone plus hes26
Are you dense? Pujols was 32 years old when he signed with the Angels. Soto only 26. Mets getting him in his prime.
Don't be mad
I agree with you buddy pujols was already washed up dats why cards let him walk soto is a different story he's has the best plate discipline in baseball
@@Des_Zee You are dense if you think the Mets are going to be better with him. He can't play defense. Clown
He great no question about I wanted so much but should we go home for the rest of the season no go make this a better team up and down the line up think 1996 superstars just a great team
You overpaid for a terrible baserunner and has no defense. Yawwwwwnnn.....
The LOL Mets went out with Lopez's glove. That was the last joke day for this team.
Well, with the mets now. the richest owner. what he wants, he'll buy at any price. has. for. Soto. to. move oni
True fact that they did this not even to win but to just spite the Yankees is plain pathetic. Y’all gonna get World Series blocked by Dodgers and Padres and Phillies and healthy Braves. Stay delusional Mets fans.
😂
2009 and counting….
I feel you "METS GM" thinks for the INSIDE INFORMATION... 🤡
So what do you suggest the Mets do then? Just give up? Not try to build a good team because there are other good teams? Would they be more likely to beat the Dodgers if they didn’t sign Juan Soto? What are you even trying to argue? They absolutely signed Soto to try to win.
Also, the Mets beat the Phillies in the playoffs last year WITHOUT Soto lmao
Enjoy crying yourself to sleep tonight, take the L. Mets fans are sleeping great and don’t need to worry about our lil bro:)
I’m only happy if there still getting good players. Not projects and wilpon moves
Meta fans are so pathetic 😂
