The Los Angeles Dodgers are the next team up in the Juan Soto sweepstakes. After meeting with the New York Yankees to open the week on Monday, Soto and his agent, Scott Boras, are scheduled to meet with the World Series champions at some point this week, according to Mark Feinsand of MLB.com .
Feinsand reported the meeting could come as early as Tuesday. "According to sources, the Dodgers will be the next team to sit down with Soto, holding their meeting with him early this week, possibly as soon as Tuesday," Feinsand wrote. A handful of teams have already met with Soto, including the Yankees, New York Mets, Toronto Blue Jays and Boston Red Sox.
The Yankees entered this process knowing they will have stiff competition from teams around the league and even though no offers have been reported yet, those conversations could be coming soon. The Dodgers landing Soto would give them an incredible super team as they look to take a hold of their World Series window. With stars like Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman already on the roster, adding Soto would make them easy World Series favorites.
It's unclear what the meeting between the Dodgers and Soto will entail, but they could be a threat to the Yankees given their deep pockets and the fact that they just defeated New York on the biggest stage..
