Juan Soto's top five suitors emerge as MLB free agency intensifies

Juan Soto is a top free agent this offseason, following a successful season with the New York Yankees. As the MLB Winter Meetings begin, several teams are vying for his signature, with the New York Mets currently leading the pack in potential offers. The Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees are also strong contenders. The Red Sox are actively recruiting Soto, hoping to boost their roster after recent struggles. Meanwhile, the Yankees aim to keep Soto, highlighting their competitive edge and his successful season with them. The Toronto Blue Jays and Los Angeles Dodgers are further down the list of suitors. The Blue Jays have increased their offer but face challenges, including retaining current stars. The Dodgers, while financially capable, may be less appealing due to Soto's preference for East Coast teams.
