I would love to be proven wrong and see the Mets go on to win the World Series this year. And see Soto evolve into the second coming of Keith Hernandez in terms of fan base love.
But I think Soto is a bad attitude guy. Lindor, Judge and Ohtani have all gone through rough stretches, but they are all good attitude guys.
To be honest, it should have been a giant red flag for the Mets when Soto showed that he was willing to leave the Yankees -- where he seemed to have been loved by everyone and fit in well and made the WS -- for an extra 0.65% and a luxury box for his family.
