The Los Angeles Dodgers are scheduled to meet with free agent outfielder Juan Soto earlier this week, sources told MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand.
Soto reportedly held meetings in California with the Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays and New York Mets. The New York Yankees are expected to meet with Soto and his agent, Scott Boras, on Monday, Feinsand reports.
The star slugger’s four meetings with the Red Sox, Blue Jays and Mets included ownership representatives, front office executives and each team’s manager, sources told Feinsand.
The World Series champion Dodgers have a spot in right field, with Teoscar Hernandez leaving in free agency and the team announcing that Mookie Betts will return to the infield next season.
Soto is the most sought-after free agent on the market this offseason after an excellent 2024 campaign. The 26-year-old set a career-high with 41 home runs and helped the Yankees reach the World Series for the first time since 2009 in his first season with the club.
