The New York Yankees are banking on the long-term success of their trade for Juan Soto. The pure hitter, who bats left-handed, is among baseball’s greatest and could end up being the game’s best hitter.

Soto was placed third among baseball’s right fielders on MLB Network’s top ten list. He came in third, behind Kyle Tucker and Ronald Acuna Jr.

The 2023 season was absolutely phenomenal for Acuna, who was the reigning MVP. You could make the case that Soto is the superior player, even though Tucker is capable of doing it all.

George Spring (ranked #6) and Josh Lowe (ranked #10) were two of three American League East players to crаck the top ten.

The 25-year-old Soto had a 5.5 WаR and a.275/.410/.519 line in the previous campaign. On the mound for the Padres, he belted 35 home runs and knocked in 109.

Fans in New York are eagerly anticipating what he can achieve at Yankee Stadium. If Soto continues to perform at the level he has shown over his six years in Major League Baseball, he will Һit forty home runs or more.

The Yankees’ offense will rely heavily on Soto’s power, but keep in mind that he’s more than just a power hitter. Even when he isn’t smashing home runs, he still manages to get on base frequently.

In a perfect world, he would come in and keep doing what he has been doing, rather than trying to throw a curveball into right field.

With Aaron Judge back in the lineup and healthy, this could be a huge boost for the New York Mets as they try to win the division and, maybe, the World Series.
