The New York Yankees fell to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the World Series in five games (1-4). The first confirmed departure, which had long been an open secret, was that of Dominican outfielder Juan Soto, who shone following his arrival at the Yankees after the deal with the San Diego Padres.

Soto and his MLB options

His contract has ended, and he is now testing the waters in free agency after failing to reach an agreement with the team. While there is still a possibility he could return, several teams are reportedly interested in acquiring his services.

Soto posted an impressive slash line of .288/.419/.569, with 41 home runs, 109 RBIs, and 128 runs scored – the highest in the American League.

Several teams are reportedly interested in signing the Dominican slugger, with names such as the New York Mets, the Los Angeles Dodgers, and the Toronto Blue Jays appearing on the radar, according to insider John Heyman. Staying at the Yankees is still a clear possibility too.

According to the specialized betting site DraftKings Sportsbook, these are the leading destinations for Juan Soto:

  1. New York Yankees
  2. New York Mets
  3. Los Angeles Dodgers
  4. Toronto Blue Jays
  5. Boston Red Sox
  6. San Francisco Giants
  7. Tampa Bay Rays

Just when the tension and drama of the World Series comes to an end, attention is quickly drawn into teams' preparations for the next season.
