They only have to pay him for one year. I don't think it's overspending. Soto is one of the few players in the league who produces in line with their salary. He finished 6th in MVP last year and had a 158 OPS+.
They gave up a lot of pitching prospects but that doesn't scare me. I can't remember the last time the Yankees traded a pitching prospect who went on to be an All Star or something. Maybe not since Eric Milton?

Thorpe (23 y/o) and King (28 y/o) are the two best pitchers they gave up (plus several other serviceable players). They previously had been loath to give up either one of them. Obviously Soto is exactly the kind of bat they need but it's quite a lot to give up for a 1 year rental. Let's see if they get real about trying to win and finally DFA the corpse of Stanton...
