Juan Soto, the Mets' outfielder who recently signed a monumental 15-year, $765 million deal, is facing scrutiny regarding his performance, which, while statistically solid, has not met lofty expectations. As Soto continues his 'tour' against various teams, including the Dodgers and the Red Sox, comparisons to luxury timepieces by his agent highlight his potential but also signal a need for consistency. Soto's focus remains on growth and time, underscoring his long-term commitment to the Mets.
Soto's agent, Scott Boras, likened Soto to an expensive timepiece that requires some care and just a little bit of effort. "It isn't an automatic Timex," Boras said. "It's a fine Swiss watch - just wind it up and it's superb."
While Soto's performance is statistically above average, by the standards of his record $765M deal it hasn't exactly been a tour de force and unfortunately requires some explanation.
