The New York Yankees reportedly have checked in on top free-agent starting pitchers in Corbin Burnes, Max Fried and Blake Snell, but it is unclear if they would sign one of the three if they are able to retain superstar outfielder Juan Soto, according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post.

Juan Soto is the most coveted free agent in this year’s class, but don’t be surprised if he takes his time settling on a new home. It’s not uncommon for Scott Boras clients to go through long free agency periods.

This week we're going to tackle Juan Soto's eventual landing spot. R.J. Anderson: I guess the Mets. We have a Steinbrenner heir versus a Steinbrenner proxy; I'm inclined to guess that Cohen is willing to clear the $600 million mark over a dozen (or whatever) years in order to get a deal done.
