PORT ST. LUCIE — A pair issues may shock you about Juan Soto, the Mets’ new all-time hitting savant who was rifling liners all around the fundamental discipline at Clover Park on Day 1 right here.
One is that he advised people he was nervous for his first official day in orange and blue.
And two, not even he figured he’d get anyplace close to that $765 million deal he did get.
On the primary rating, if he had nerves, and he admitted to me he did, they didn’t present. He was spraying photographs all over the place, punctuating a well-covered batting session that separated him from all of the others with a bomb into the Garber Buick pavilion in proper discipline.
