At these costs, shouldn’t Juan Soto assume he’s the most effective hitter within the sport? Or on the very least, not publicly counsel he misses having the “best hitter in the game” hit behind him, as he informed our Mike Puma on Monday?
There’s most likely some validity to what Soto informed Puma about issues being “different” — which means harder — with out the nice Aaron Decide’s lineup safety. However this isn’t the time for that.
There might by no means be a superb time for that. However this positively is just not it. When Soto made the feedback, earlier than lastly homering in Monday’s 5-1 win in Minnesota, he was 15 video games right into a 15-year dedication.
It appears like there’s a reasonably lengthy solution to go — for those who’re scoring at house, 14 years and 146 video games now.
