_No_ baseball player is worth that much, it makes no sense. NFL players deserve that sort of pay more than them, just due to the amount of abuse they take on every single play alone, compared to MLB..
@@drefore2642 he's played relatively well regardless of where he's played. Also, while Judge is better than any player on the Mets the Mets are a much much better team.
@@TheGuyCalledX true but 10years shohei is 40, not going to have anything left right? so even he had higher APY but the total amount still goes to Soto
Thats the same thing. There's nothing you can't afford without that extra 5 million lol. Only capitalist monsters would think otherwise. He probly chose it cause he didn't believe in the culture of the Yankees
imagine if you had just calculated how much money he makes per minute instead of this weird per blink measurement that is based on estimates. also you didnt account for sleep, just stick to a per minute measurement in the future please
The first 6 or 7 years will be great for both parties. However, when he starts degrading as he gets older the contract is going to look awful on that payroll.
His style of play looks like itll age really well and he was never a good defensive player so that doesnt matter. His batting style of being patient at the plate shouldn't degrade badly if at all. Also theres probably some opt out 7 years in for an even bigger deal.
@@bruh-vp1fp All good points. As an Angels fan I have memories of Pujols during his contract. He still had a good eye, and had a similar approach to Soto. However, his legs started to give way around midway through the contract and those homers became flyouts to the warning track. It went downhill from there.
1:05 the average baseball stadium sells 30,000+ tickets a night, 162 games a year and that adds up quickly. Add on all the concession stand and merch money they make from each game and that’s how you get 700+ million dollar deals, along with no salary cap helps too
Not even close to what top NBA players make ($60+m). The only caveat is NBA players aren’t allowed to sign for 10 years. People don’t realize how crazy NBA money is and is about to get. We will see a contract which includes a year of $70m in the next 5 years easily
Actually shohei Ohtani makes $70 per year. 15 million more than the highest paid NBA yearly salary of all time Stephen curry. Plus top MLB players have way longer careers so they end up making more money in the long term as well.
Yes they can. last year we had the Rangers and Dbacks in the World Series, meanwhile the Rays, and Brewers are always in the hunt. The Dodgers and Yankees finally met in the World Series for the first time in 43 years, yet everyone acts as if they play in the WS every year.
@ i think its more that midmarket teams have to make from their farm system while the large market teams like the dodgers, yankees, mets can just go out and blow their load on a few players and spend over a 1bil dollars in one free agency.
@@Dolphindan69 that's why there needs to be a system that makes them do it. Verbally complaining to billionaires gets us nowhere (ahem Salary Cap/Floor)
I don’t think any team signing players for double-digit years are expecting high-level performance for the life of the contract. It’s almost like players are signing for 1/2 of the length and getting 1/2 of the total value of the contract in installments over time. Technically, there’s no deferred money. However, we know he’ll not be on the roster by Age 37. Cohen will still pay him not to play for what he provided in his prime.
@@Dr_Evil_Geniusthis is exactly why and so many people don’t seem to understand that. I’m not saying I agree on that idea being done, especially all the time in baseball specifically, but that’s how it came to be. If the Mets win just 1 WS and Soto was a key reason why, then it won’t matter what else he does because that’s what they’re paying him for
Pat, the physical/geographic poles are fixed. But the magnetic poles can fluctuate (and even flip!). So Santa isn’t moving, but your compass might be pointing somewhere new. Source: I’m probably wrong.
Another reason why MLB desperately needs a salary cap. Yankees were smart to drive it up as much as they could for the Mets then like say “no thanks”. Make dirty Cohen overpay. He earned his riches by insider trading anyway. Something about that guys look I don’t like.
He doesn’t have generational pull like Ohtani, he’s a worse batter than Ohtani, he can’t pitch, his fielding is terrible, he’s not a good baserunner, he doesn’t care about team culture, history, or fan base, he doesn’t even care about winning a championship, he truthfully just wants money. He’s a good player but imo this might be one of the worst contracts ever.
What's stupid is the fans who will pay extravagant amount of money to see a man hit n catch a ball. Meanwhile people complain when they have to pay $1000 to a doctor who cures a patient of cancer. But Kudos to him and the Dominican people
You can look at the growing contracts and sports and understand the loss of the value of the dollar. Sports provide great economic lessons to the Americans
Dude is one of the biggest financial criminals in history. Once you hit the $1.8 billion mark in fines maybe prison would be good. That’s usually where we send people who steal 0.01% of that amount
There was a great article a few years ago about how uncle steve said he could right off losses for the first how many years after the sale. Thats why I don't think the Mets wanted to defer any money either.
Im not saying I agree with how much money he was paid, but the reason he was paid this much (and along with many other stars in baseball) is for the now and the chance at a WS. The Mets aren’t expecting him to be worth 50 million at ages 35+, they’re hoping he helped them win a WS by then and gave them 8-10 good-great seasons. I don’t agree with why contracts are structured this way in baseball but that’s how it is
Its crazy i am not a Yankee fan,my Dad is , for that Money i would Get : Bregman at Third,Gimenez at second Base,Vladi at First,Santander at right field

The contract has 75 million in bonuses so after the fifth year if he decided to not opt out. He would get paid 5 million more. The contract has a worth of $800 million
The fact that we finally have an owner who’s willing to spend build this team is the same thing the Yankees would do for years but they’re mad cause they didn’t get him. Sometimes you got eat your own word which us Mets fan been doing for years because of the Wilpons regime was horrible. It’s about to time we finally got something that’s in our favor and hope it will build in the future. The most important thing is, it’s not about the Yankees we have to face. It’s the about the Dodgers in the National League we have to face them to get to the World Series. Times have changed and looking forward to the new opportunity as Met Fan We’ve been waiting for Let’s Go Mets!! 💙🧡💙🧡.
Mets have the richest owner in baseball who the hell cares. It aint the fans money. Btw still over 100 million under our payroll from last year still. This is just the beginning
In relation to Darren McFaddens tweet: Ehhhh… idk… If you break the pay down between 162 MLB games and 17 NFL games I would much rather play 17 games over 162. 17 games out of 52 weeks. McFadden signed a 6 year deal for a little over 42,000,000 with the Raiders which was a little over 7,000,000 a year on average. And this was years ago when NFL players were getting paid much less and playing 16 games. Soto signed for 765,000,000 over 15 years which is 51,000,000 a year. 51,000,000/ 162 =314,814.815 a game. 7,000,000/ 16 =437,500 a game. McFadden made more money per game years ago in the NFL per game than Soto is getting paid per game today. McFadden only had to play in, bro away from family, travel at times, for a total of 16 games and got paid more. I’m really confused and not sure where he is coming from. This is why most people chose football over baseball. Less damage to your body, more rest, more time with family, and you get paid more per actual working day/ game.
These 14 years deals need to end. These guys get paid only by big market teams. La and New York are the only teams going to sign these guys. I'm glad Soto made his money it's not his fault but paying a guy until he's dead is crazy.
NO NO NO... this is still unfair. A luxury Tax does nothing. A hard cap is needed it will drive a min payroll and a cap and all the teams would be more competitive instead of the same 4 in the playoffs.
You'd rather it go into the owners pockets that make billions per year? I'd rather give generational wealth to people who started at the bottom and worked their asses off over those who were born into rich families and make billions OUTSIDE of the MLB as well
This is why a lot of people hate athletes though, the insane amount of money that they get paid is mind boggling. This dude just got $50m+/yr guaranteed to play baseball... it's pretty disgusting when you think about it lol. First responders making pennies of pennies in comparison lol.

I blame the Mets for offering a contract of 15 years. Juan Soto will play well for the first several years, then one of the following things will happen: (a) Soto will become injury prone; (b) Soto will become lazy, & his performance will plummet. If a pro sports franchise is going to offer a contract to any athlete, then it should be a maximum of 5 years, with the first 4 years being guaranteed. Preferably, the contract would be even shorter for the purpose of preventing that player from becoming lazy.
Yeah it's like the Pujols contract with the angels but way more money and years. Sure you'll get alot out of him for a while but eventually father time will catch up and you'll be stuck with a massive contract

(b) Soto will become lazy, & his performance will plummet.
If a pro sports franchise is going to offer a contract to any athlete, then it should be a maximum of 5 years, with the first 4 years being guaranteed. Preferably, the contract would be even shorter for the purpose of preventing that player from becoming lazy.
Yeah it's like the Pujols contract with the angels but way more money and years. Sure you'll get alot out of him for a while but eventually father time will catch up and you'll be stuck with a massive contract
No body I mean no body is worth that , lol is he going to put the whole team on his back
Wonder if Mets still paying Bobby Bonilla?
Yankees fans in major denial over who is the best team. The Mets were better than the Yankees with Soto and now have Soto. LGM
