Flattering though they may be, the social media posts won’t be the deciding factor on whether the Mets can land Guerrero — who would to have acquired now via trade or in free agency in a year — and/or Soto.
The ball is in owner Steve Cohen’s hand — or rather, the depths of his pockets.
Guerrero is coming off his fourth consecutive All Star selection in 2024, and at 25 years old, the infielder’s price tag is only rising. The Blue Jays are going to do all they can to keep the two-time Silver Slugger north of the border, but previous attempts to get a deal done have proved largely futile.
