The free-agent market is expected to revolve around Soto. First baseman Pete Alonso, also a Boras client, could become a middle-of-the-order option for the Yankees should Soto sign elsewhere. The Mets, of course, remain in contention to re-sign Alonso.

If the New York Yankees don't re-sign Juan Soto, general manager Brian Cashman could pivot to three players as part of his backup plan.

As Juan Soto weighs his future in meetings with suitors over the next week, the free agent’s most recent team is not hiding its interest in the outfielder. New York Yankees closer Luke Weaver was asked on Tuesday’s episode of “The Show” with The New York Post’s Jon Heyman and Joel Sherman for his Soto prediction.
