I agree Ohtani is the better player, but Soto is only 26, and Ohtani is 30.
Not that Soto’s age justifies a contract of over $700 million though.
Soto was never my favorite player, but as a Mets fan, I hope he gels with the team and helps them win a championship, even if it will be somewhat cheapened by the fact that they are outspending everyone else in what seems a somewhat reckless way.
