USATSI Juan Soto , now of the San Diego Padres , is no longer the story of the 2022 MLB trade deadline. That is because the 2022 MLB trade deadline has passed. Soto, however, remains the story. He's the story in large measure because of what he means to the San Diego lineup and their postseason hopes. He's also the story on account of the very real possibility that he will eventually become baseball's first $500 million man. Whether Soto threatens or surpasses that once unimaginable mark via free agency or contract extension with San Diego remains to be determined, but regardless of the specific path he takes he has a real chance at fetching a guarantee of, yes, half a billion dollars (or more!). If your baseball fandom dates back several years, then that's a pretty stunning premise – one that perhaps merits further exploration. Let's do just that and explore the reasons why Soto may soon make MLB salary history on a massive scale. 1. Soto is a rare hitter Soto this … [Read more...] about Will Juan Soto sign MLB’s first $500 million deal? Four reasons why new Padres star could hit milestone

The 2022 MLB Trade Deadline has passed and an active market saw some huge names change teams, including 2022 MLB Home Run Derby winner Juan Soto . The Padres put together an immense trade package to bring in Soto and first baseman Josh Bell to bolster their World Series hopes and both players should be available to play on Wednesday night against the Rockies . But does that mean that you should be immediately thrusting them into your MLB DFS lineups as they look to get their bearings with a new team? With only a handful of evening games on the MLB schedule, it's a relatively shallow MLB DFS player pool to build your lineups from. So which players have matchups that you can exploit, and which teams should you be looking to incorporate in your MLB DFS stacks?

Getty Images Major League Baseball's trade deadline produced a good number of nice moves, and some will likely have a direct impact on the way this year's playoffs might unfold. But there was one deal that may very well have implications on the playoffs for years to come. By now, baseball fans have seen the Juan Soto stats that show how the young star compares favorably to some of the greatest players in baseball history. We're talking about Ted Williams, Hank Aaron and those types of inner-circle legends. Soto doesn't turn 24 years old until October, yet he already has 569 hits, 108 doubles, 119 home runs, 358 RBI, 399 runs and a World Series ring. To see a player this special dealt is pretty jarring. It almost never happens, as we almost never see players the caliber of Soto. He's exceedingly rare. That's why the move will be felt throughout baseball for years. It's a landscape-changing move, and to find a comp you'd need go 15 years back in time. The Miguel … [Read more...] about How the Juan Soto deal may alter MLB balance of power for years, and create a $500 million man in the process

USATSI Noah Syndergaard gave up just one run in his final start for the Los Angeles Angels on July 25, but after just 15 total games on the west coast, he is back in familiar territory pitching in the NL East. Syndergaard pitched for the New York Mets for six seasons, but after Tuesday's trade deadline, he'll take to the mound for the Philadelphia Phillies against the Washington Nationals . In Syndergaard's last complete season for the Mets in 2019, he went 2-1 against the Nats in five starts with a 2.65 ERA and 34 strikeouts, but can he replicate that level of play for MLB DFS lineups on Thursday? The only player of note remaining on the new-look post-deadline Nationals from Syndergaard's 2019 season is Victor Robles , who has hits in three of his last four games. Robles could be a sneaky option in the MLB DFS player pool on Thursday if he can recapture his success against Syndergaard from 2019, where he went 4-for-12 with three home runs. Before you make your MLB … [Read more...] about MLB DFS: Top DraftKings and FanDuel daily Fantasy baseball picks, lineup advice for Thursday, August 4, 2022
