That's sorely disappointing. 
Do Yankees fans live in their own reality? They’re saying things like Soto has no loyalty (he was there for one season via trade) and he’s just after the money. You know, the same thing you can say about every mercenary the Yankees sign every offseason to the biggest contracts.
I think it sucks. People need to grow up.
Soto obviously liked being a Yankee, but he goes with the best contract. Like pretty much every other baseball player in existence. "Loyalty" is irrelevant.
I mean, Braves fans gave Freddie Freeman a standing ovation his first at-bat as a Dodger! You think they gave a shit about loyalty? Hell no.
Look, I personally WOULD have preferred that Soto remain a Yankee, but it's not like I'm gonna boo him because he left (unfortunately, some probably will
). That's a dick move. I wish fans wouldn't do that. It's embarrassing.
On an unrelated note, I'm liking the closer (Devin Williams) the Yankees just traded for. Dude's an absolute BEAST.

That low?The Freddie Freeman walk off grand slam ball in the World Series sold for $1.56 million.
Yankees get Cody Bellinger.
The Pride of the Yankees has been added to the Library of Congress' National Film Registry.
The City of Everett caved to MLB's demand to build a new ball park for the minor league Aquasox or face relocation/losing the team. The cost is going to be $100+ million and design work and groundbreaking are expected to be done by late 2025.
$100M. That's a nice investment for a $10M return.
There was nothing like watching him run the bases. RIP.
Probably the best leadoff hitter in the history of baseball, a real game changer. Today's game really doesn't work the same, so we won't see another like him.

As an Angels fan, I agree 100%.
Random sports thought: there should be some notable baseball game played on Christmas Day - an MLB exhibition game, a minor leagues all-stars game, an East vs. West Coast event, whatever, but something. Who cares if it's the offseason? If anything, that'd make it more interesting. If Christmas were during the NFL's off season, would they lack the swagger to put on a game of some kind? I highly doubt it.
If baseball wants to be serious about retaining the title of "America's pastime," it should put on an event on the country's biggest holiday of the year. If the NBA can put on five games, and the NFL two, then baseball should be able to put on one.
