Mets are worth more with Soto: His impact in NY is immense

From day one, Soto sent signs that he was a great hitter and that would take him to the top.

By 2025, the popular Dominican player will be the highest-paid player in the Major Leagues, with a 15-year, $765 million contract.

Was it a great deal for the Mets?

Of course

According to Forbes magazine, the Mets are worth $3.2 billion, far from the Cubs’ $4.6 billion, Boston’s $4.8 billion, the Dodgers’ $6.9 billion and the Yankees’ $8.2 billion.

However, with Soto now, the Mets are worth more.

The costs of their broadcasts, advertisements, tickets, and souvenirs went up.

Soto’s salary is $51 million annually, something the Mets will make easy.

The 2025 Mets’ payroll is $312 million, second only to the Dodgers with $322 million.

When you add up the Mets’ cumulative value for the next 15 years, Soto’s $675 million contract will be covered in just three seasons.

It is very likely that within three years, the Mets will cost more than 5 million dollars, which would be enough to cover Soto’s salaries for 15 years.

At 26 years of age, Soto was already a World Champion with the Nationals, a four-time All-Star, winner of five “Silver Sluggers,” and Batting Leader.

Soto is synonymous with success.
