New York Yankees outfielder Juan Soto smashed two more homers in Sunday's 7-5 win over the San Francisco Giants, giving him 17 on the season. Soto finished the day 3-for-5 with three runs scored and three RBI to go along with the pair of dingers. The 25-year-old superstar has been unconscious this season, slashing .322/.417/.614 with 46 runs, 17 homers, 53 RBI, and four stolen bases. He is one of the best players in the majors and that directly translates over the fantasy, where he is staking his claim to be the number one overall player.
New York Yankees outfielder Juan Soto went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's loss versus the Los Angeles Angels. Soto continues to have an incredible season and now has 15 homers to go along with a healthy .312 batting average, 46 RBI and four stolen bases. He also has a shiny .989 OPS. Soto, 25, entered the season as one of the top bats in the game, but has taken it to another level in 2024 as he gets ready to enter free agency. Managers should continue to reap the benefits of the upcoming free-agent as he has shown no signs of slowing down. Soto will look to continue his success against left-hander Tyler Anderson and the Angels on Wednesday.
New York Yankees outfielder Juan Soto put up his second two-homer game of the season in Wednesday's win over the visiting Seattle Mariners, going 2-for-4 with three RBI in the victory. Soto tagged Mariners pitcher Bryce Miller for a two-run jack to score Anthony Volpe in the third inning before going deep once more to make it a 5-0 ballgame in the sixth. On the season as a whole, the 25-year-old perennial Silver Slugger is slashing an elite .313/.409/.569 with 13 home runs, 40 RBI, 37 runs scored, and four stolen bases in 195 at-bats over 51 outings as New York's everyday No. 2 batter. Soto will next face M's right-hander Luis Castillo in Thursday's series finale. In 13 plate appearances against Castillo in his career, Soto is 2-for-8 with a homer, an RBI, and five walks.
New York Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner said last week that he's willing to negotiate a contract extension for outfielder Juan Soto during the season. But with Soto in a contract year in 2024, most MLB executives see it as highly unlikely that he and his agent, Scott Boras, will sign an extension before he reaches the open market. "There's no chance," an American League executive said. "I think he ultimately signs back with the Yankees, but Scott takes his guys into free agency." Another AL executive put the Yankees' chances of signing Soto before the end of the year at 5%. The 25-year-old left-handed slugger is liking the Bronx so far, hitting .311/.411/.552 with 11 home runs and 37 RBI in his first 48 games in pinstripes, so he definitely has a reason to stick around. Obviously, Soto is a must-start in all fantasy lineups when he's healthy.
New York Yankees outfielder Juan Soto had a monster day on Saturday in the Yankees' 6-1 win over the Chicago White Sox. Soto blasted two home runs, both solo shots off White Sox starter Brad Keller, and tallied three RBI in the midst of going 4-4 with a walk. The lefty's big day raised his OPS to a team high .975, just a couple ticks above teammate Aaron Judge. After coming over in a trade from the San Diego Padres in the offseason, Soto is proving the trade package was worth the cost. The 25-year-old stated on Thursday that he would be open to contract talks with the Yankees during the season if they approached his agent Scott Boras. It would likely be a smart decision for the Yankees to do so. Soto will look to continue his MVP-caliber season on Sunday against scheduled White Sox starter Chris Flexen.
