According to reports Juan Soto is looking for a contract worth $700 million or more
Soto spoke to the media right after losing in the World Series and most people found it strange that he was already discuss free agency less than an hours after losing one of the biggest games of his career. He stated that he is willing to listen to all teams that are interested in making an offer and from the sound of it will be choosing the team that offers him the most money.

This is an incredible amount of money but there will likely be at least 1 team that will be willing to make this offer but the real question is will the Toronto Blue Jays be willing to go up to $700 million as they did last year for Ohtani.
