A record-breaking deal for slugger Juan Soto sends the baseball world into a spin toggle caption Sarah Stier/Getty Images DALLAS — At baseball's annual winter meetings in Dallas, the only manager coy with his compliments about superstar Juan Soto was the one in charge of his new team, if the reports are to be believed. For the past 24 hours, reports of a blockbuster $765 million deal to bring Soto, one of the sport's finest young hitters, to the Mets for 15 years have dominated the baseball world. "He's a tremendous player," said Dave Martinez, who managed Soto during his 4.5 seasons with the Washington Nationals. Shildt compared the annual value of Soto's contract — $51 million per year — to that of TV personality Judge Judy, who reportedly earned $47 million per year in the 2010s.
