Juan Soto already looks tailor-made for New York
NY Post
HOUSTON — Juan Soto’s wonderful first two games in pinstripes represent only the beginning of what promises to be a very long and glorious stay in New York.
It should be quite the ride.
Soto’s batting brilliance is something to behold, and the multiple on-base-percentage league leader reached base seven of his first 10 plate appearances in pinstripes as Soto’s Yankees made it two straight victories here in this former house of horrors. He’s a hitting prodigy for the ages, although he kindly and fairly named two others as the best in the game right now (more on that below.)
And unless something unexpected happens — and in free agency, I guess you never know — the guess here is that he will be enjoyed by New Yorkers for the next decade, maybe decade and a half.
If I were a betting man — and as we all know by now, betting isn’t well received in baseball — I’d say he’s a New Yorker forever, and for good.
The real question may be which borough he will be working in.
