It would be funny if Juan Soto went full Kris Bryant…
“It’s like, ‘Oh shoot, I need to get there [to Spring Training].” Bryant was quoted as saying, “There were other teams interested, but I didn’t want to wait around … It was a completely different situation for a lot of free agents at the time. I guess I didn’t do as much research into the prospects as I could.”
”As a player, it’s an easier spot to be in,” Bryant said. “Because you don’t really have that outside pressure, like the Dodgers are going to have. They invest a lot of money in good players. So they have to go out there and win. For us, we can be someone that nobody talks about.”
