The New York Mets moved to 30-20 on the season with a 5-1 win over the Boston Red Sox on Wednesday, a game that included another hitless outing by prized free agent acquisition Juan Soto. Soto, who signed a 15-year, $765 million deal this offseason, constituting the largest contract in sports history, had a walk and a run batted in during the game.

Juan Soto's continued struggles while wearing a Mets uniform bring back memories of Francisco Lindor's unsavory start in Queens.

Amid New York Mets' Juan Soto's early struggles and his former team's early success, one New York Yankees staffer believes losing the star last offseason might have worked out better for the Yankees.
