Part 3/8:
The Toronto Blue Jays have emerged as key players in the Soto sweepstakes, seemingly prepared to extend a record-breaking offer. Although initial predictions suggested a signing by the end of the weekend, the ongoing negotiations have drawn out longer than expected, creating palpable tension among baseball enthusiasts. Reports indicate that the Blue Jays may have positioned themselves to offer as much as $730 million. Still, they face pressure from other high-profile franchises, including the New York Mets, who are rumored to be willing to reach up to the $750-$760 million range.
