If they don’t re-sign Soto, there’s something broken in the front office. All he cares about is money. Give it to him.

Chi, we both know how Hal works. I would be absolutely mind blown if he pays for Soto.

If I’m in Hal’s ear, here’s what I’m saying…
We had 7 extra home games due to the playoffs and World Series which we definitely would not have reached without Soto. At $10M* per game in revenue that’s $70M in additional money we earned that wasn’t planned when we budgeted. Juan Soto will have us in the playoffs every year. He pays for himself. And that doesn’t account for all the additional merchandise opportunities and fan interest we’ll have if he signs long term.
*that’s the 2023 average regular season take, so likely even more for the 2024 playoffs
