Juan Soto has made headlines by signing a groundbreaking 15-year, $765 million contract with the New York Mets, marking the largest deal in professional sports history.
As the baseball community digests this monumental signing, speculation arises about which players might challenge Soto's record in the future. Candidates include Vladimir Guerrero Jr., who is set to hit free agency soon, and young talents like James Wood and Dylan Crews from the Washington Nationals.
Other potential contenders for record-breaking contracts are Elly De La Cruz, Roman Anthony, and Munetaka Murakami, while Gunnar Henderson of the Baltimore Orioles emerges as a strong candidate if he maintains his performance. The landscape of MLB contracts is evolving, and Soto's deal may soon be eclipsed.
