Juan Soto reveals the fact that the contract is not expanding with citizens

Before Juan Soto bounced from San Diego Padres To New York Yanxiz, finally fell with New York Mits in a record deal worth $ 765 million in this season, winning the world championship with Washington citizens.

Only in his second year in the league, Soto helped Nats Earn their first championship in 2019 and stayed with the club until the middle of the 2022 season. Before it was traded to Padres in August 2022, SOO rejected a 15 -year -old extension of $ 440 million earlier of that season.

There was a lot of speculation about the reason why this contract was not accepted, which was more profitable than the deals signed by his colleagues, such as Ronald Akuna Junior. (Eight years, 100 million dollars) and Fenningo Tatis Junior (14 years, 340 million dollars). During the appearance of Abriendo SPORTS, SOO revealed the reason.

“Citizens made me three offers: First, a similar offer to the Ronald Aquina Junior deal; then another offer similar to the contract of Fernando Tatis Junior; then the offer of $ 440 million came,” Soto said (for all MLB from the inside Hector Gomez)..

“If they signed Turner, Renndon and Harper, you would have accepted a bid less than $ 440 million.”

How did the citizens of Juan Soto and other main players lose?

Citizens could have had one of the most frightening squads in the baseball game that includes Trea Turner, Bryce Harper, Anthony Rendon and Juan Soto. However, they left it collapsing.

As Soto said, he wanted to confirm a long-term competitive team-something that citizens cannot guarantee.

Harper left before the season of citizens and balls of the world 2019, as it signed a 13 -year contract worth $ 330 million with Philadelphia Velez.

The next main player who is leaving was the Rendon, who, after the wonderful 2019 season, signed a seven -year contract worth 245 million dollars after the tournament was run.

Finally, Turner became the final straw when it was traded in Los Angeles Dodgers in July 2021 before he eventually signed a $ 300 million contract with $ 300 million with Phillies in December 2022.

With the disappearance of all the three main players, Soto followed his example, leaving by trade to Badris in August 2022.
