The New York Yankees appear to be falling behind in the race to sign All-Star, Silver Slugger and First-Team All-MLB outfielder Juan Soto. The man who established a new personal high in home runs this year with 41 appears to be leaning towards two Yankees’ rivals: the New York Mets and the Boston Red Sox.

With Clay Holmes likely on his way out due to him being on the free agency market and having a rough ending with the Yankees, adding an arm like Jansen makes sense. While Luke Weaver was excellent for the Yankees as a closer in his short stint, Jansen has more experience, which New York might favor.
