The Red Sox pushed hard for Juan Soto. Steve Cohen’s wallet emerged victorious but it appears Boston used all of their tricks including having David Ortiz be part of the recruiting circle. It’s not surprising that the Sox didn’t win the bidding but Ortiz was very involved in the process.
Soto eventually signed with the Mets, but the former Red Sox great revealed that he tried very hard to bring him to Boston. Both players are from the Dominican Republic, and the amount of success Dominican-born players have had in Boston was clearly part of the pitch.
VIA Baseball Isn’t Boring” podcast:
“We wanted him in Boston,” Ortiz said Saturday. “Unfortunately, it didn’t work out.”
“If he signs with this organization, which is an amazing organization, he can balance the clubhouse in a way that I did. He’s gonna have Coach Papi in his corner.”
At the end of the day, Ortiz is happy for Soto that he got this enormous payday in what ended up being the richest deal lin all of sports.
“It’s great,’’ Ortiz said. “It’s well deserved, what he got, and we’re gonna continue cheering for him. He’s a great kid. You guys are gonna enjoy Soto for a while here.’’
Oh… and he’s happy he doesn’t play for the Yankees anymore too. It’s sad that Red Sox fans only have this to hang their hat on but I guess that’s the world we live in.
