When MLB superstar Juan Soto hit free agency after the 2024 season, he held all the leverage. He had just helped lead the New York Yankees to their first World Series appearance since 2009, reestablishing the franchise as a true contender.
Juan Soto abrió el juego con un jonrón, Marcus Semien conectó un cuadrangular y terminó con cuatro imparables, y los encendidos Mets de Nueva York doblegaron el miércoles 10-5 a los Rockies de Colorado.
The New York Mets have announced their starting lineup for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Angels in California.
New York Mets manager Carlos Mendoza is moving Juan Soto into the leadoff spot for Monday's game against the Colorado Rockies.
The New York Mets are going through some major struggles this season. While they came into the year as a top contender, a 12-game losing streak and some poor production have led to one of the worst records in the sport.
The Washington Nationals' decision to trade Juan Soto seemingly paid off on Thursday after James Wood robbed his home run.
But there was the 6-foot-6 James Wood in right field for the Nationals, who made a terrific leaping catch that saw him extend over the fence to take away a would-be solo home run. Soto smashed a 1-1 fastball from Nats starter Miles Mikolas 378 feet at 108.1 mph.
The 12-22 Mets need a spark. Manager Carlos Mendoza’s next attempt to find one comes in the form of an unusual lineup construction. Juan Soto will bat leadoff for New York in Monday's 5:40 p.m. ET series opener at the Rockies.
