A look at the 15-year, $765 million deal

The New York Mets have signed free agent outfielder Juan Soto to the largest contract in MLB history.

That’s an unprecedented amount for the four-time All-Star, in part because he’s only 26 years old and the highlights of what already looks like a Hall of Fame career could still be ahead of him.

Soto chose the Mets over the New York Yankees, Toronto Blue Jays and Boston Red Sox – preferring to stay in the Big Apple after hitting a career-high 41 home runs and 109 RBI with the Yankees last season had scored .288.

Here’s a look at the eye-popping numbers from his history-making contract with the Mets.
