Get well soon Ben! I’m sorry, but Soto won’t be coming to the Giants. Do you really think he would want to hit at AT&T. When the dust settles, he will still be a Yankee.
From statmuse - "Juan Soto is batting .325 with 27 hits, 7 home runs, 13 RBIs and 22 runs scored in 22 games against the Giants on the road in his career." Not close to bad at all...
Analytics and Farhan failed the Giants, so Posey needs to clear out the old and make way for the new. It doesn't mean all analytics should be ignored, but "modern" teams got outspent by Yankees who were healthy this yr and their stars performed (ie Soto, Stanton) in playoffs. Also, Dodger stars (ie Yamamoto, Ohtani, Betts, etc.) finally performed well in playoffs so far. It's mainly why the #2 and #3 big market spenders are in the WS.
Bro Soto not leaving yankess for SF ..he will use giants to drive up price but that's about it..he's gonna sign with Yankees just makes to much sense..
Full stop on any rumors around any major signings by the Giants. Giants have a lot of gaps that need addressing before a Soto comes here. And it starts with entertaining Roki Sasaki now.
If they can secure Snell that will go along way towards, other top tier free agents coming to the SF Giants. The bottom line is for the Giants 1 or 2 free agents coming is not going to get them to the top of the division. I’d rather them build thru youth, and play solid baseball. Getting just Soto is only going to get them to 3rd place in their own division.
And you know that how? These are the most type of useless comments I ever see, if it's a done deal that he's staying why hasn't he signed a contract? There is nothing stopping that from happening.
@@rafa_v1.0 Soto wants to stay on the East Coast because his mother lives in the DR, he is very close to his mother and it is a much shorter trip to the DR from the East Coast
Soto isn't going anywhere. The Yanks have been his favorite team since he was a kid and the Big Apple has always been where he wants to play. He might consider the Mets if they throw an obscene amount of $$$ at him but, either way, he's not leaving NYC.
There is no way Soto is coming to the Giants. He wants to be on the East Coast! If he does not sign with the Yankees he will sign with the Mets. He is very close to his mother and it is a much shorter trip to the Dominican Republic from the East Coast
I'm sorry to be the Demi Downer of bad news, but Soto isn't coming to San Francisco or anywhere else... he's staying a Yankee.. he's going to do the same exact thing Arron Judge did, and use other teams to get the Yankees to give him more money....if Soto was in any other team that wasn't the Yankees or Dodgers, I'll would had said, yeah, we have a good chance... but it seems like every player's dream is to play for the Yankees ... Especially players from the Dominican Republic.... Unless San Francisco owner is willing to throw at him 700 million as well, which he is not worth, i doubt he's coming to the bay...
I get that you mention you’re having some health issues but this was riddled with errors. Soto did not get traded in 2013 it wasn’t the Nationals that put the package together it was the Yankees, Lindor isn’t on the Yankees he’s on the Mets. Sheesh maybe if you can’t do the job take some time off.
How many times are you going to hope beyond hope that Giants can sign Juan Soto? The outcome will be another bad memory for this franchise, because Giants need to get better with small and medium fish first, on their roster, before casting for the 12 ft pre-historic Sturgeon like Soto. Also, Giants need a power corner hitting 1B like the Braves, Dodgers and Padres. Chapman hit for decent power at 3B, but Giants fell far short on 1B with Wade.
Please just stop. Not coming. Not enough talent in the BA to protect him. He doesn’t want to be to only bat i. The lineup. Not coming. Been there. Done that. And while Buster will be infinitely more successful than Farhan, it’s just not happening.
It's comical home many people think they know it's a done deal that Soto is staying in NY. The Yankees can extend Soto right now, they could have at anytime extended his contract. The fact that they haven't done so means it's not a done deal regardless of the %. Another comment I is the "short porch in RF" BS. Soto's shortest HR to RF at Yankee Stadium this year was 340 feet, his next shortest was 361 feet, the next one after that was 380! Oracle RF is 309 to 365 feet. Don't tell me he's going to staying in NY for 2 HRs! The reason no one is hitting HRs at Oracle is because Yastrzemski and Wade Jr aren't' in the the same league when it comes to power hitters! Get a true power hitter and they will hit HRs at Oracle just BArry Bonds did, and just like players from out of town hit them. I beleive Soto hit 2 HRs the 3 game series in SF this year and Judge hit 3 HR. The Giants aren't doing that because they don't have those type of players and aren't intimidated by that.
Did contact rate and two-strike adjustments hurt you as a child? Also, the Giants are not signing Soto. I don't even care about the FA market personally, nothing starts until certain areas of the front office are purged and restructured. Sorry, but employing a million different hawk-eye coordinators and data analysts is just useless bloat at this point.
Have a great weekend Ben! God bless brother. Let me know if there’s anything I can be praying for! Appreciate you man.
Ben, I hope you are ok. Love your show as a lifelong Giants fan now living on the East Coast. Take care of yourself!
I was fully on board the Aaron Judge hype train, I was halfway aboard the Ohtani hype train. Even I have 0 hope we're getting Soto lol.
It’s just noise, it would be nice. However the “Semi” recent World Series were won by homegrown talent not buying the latest free agent.
Farhan was a clown with an I Pad.
No one wants to live in SF or play in that ballpark.

There's no way this will ever happen just focus on the short stop and international market

Juan soto will bat 260 with 20 hrs and 70 rbis at oracle park.
ah ha ha!

Ben, I enjoy your shows and hope all goes well with you.
You do a fine job consistently, Ben! CLICK THE THUMBS UP, Y'ALL!!!
Ben, hope all is well. Get better soon. Soto will stay in NY. But thanks for the information.
It needs to happen fast.
Take care of yourself Ben. As for Soto, the price definitely went after that HR tonight. I see him staying as a Yankee to be honest.
Full stop on any rumors around any major signings by the Giants. Giants have a lot of gaps that need addressing before a Soto comes here. And it starts with entertaining Roki Sasaki now.
Ben- not a package that the Nationals put together to get Soto .., but a package that the Yankees put together
Take care and get well! ❤

No he is not.
Egad Sotto is the last thing we need. He is a clubhouse cancer. He’s got a bad attitude. Giants are good guys. He is not a good guy.
Soto isn't going anywhere. The Yanks have been his favorite team since he was a kid and the Big Apple has always been where he wants to play. He might consider the Mets if they throw an obscene amount of $$$ at him but, either way, he's not leaving NYC.
In the words of Jonah Jameson "You serious?".
Juan Soto will pull an Aaron Judge and use Giants offer for leverage with the Yanks.
Gotta overpay if they really want him
There is no way Soto is coming to the Giants. He wants to be on the East Coast! If he does not sign with the Yankees he will sign with the Mets. He is very close to his mother and it is a much shorter trip to the Dominican Republic from the East Coast

Ben commits gaffes like that all the time. He's totally unqualified to run this channel.
I trust Ramos more than Soto, we desperately need an all star second baseman. That’s it!!

no way and not going to get him. Nobody on the roster to protect him and wont help the 3rd best roster in the NL West.
Given today's article in sfgate on Giants ownership why would anyone want sign here?
Are you referring to Johnson's donations to the GOP? If so, what does that have to do with anyone signing in SF - I mean, besides nothing?
Normally I wouldn't care but Giant profits go promoting racism and election denials
If you are a person of color and you could sign anywhere why would you sign here?
Another meaningless comment.
