After Juan Soto, the left fielder, rejected the Washington Nationals’ 15-year $440 million offer, the team has decided to trade the talented player.

“It feels really bad to see stuff going out like that because I’m a guy who keeps everything on my side. I keep everything quiet,” Soto said on Saturday’s loss 6-3 versus the Atlanta Braves.

Soto, born on October 25, 1998, has been on the team for 5 years. Soto makes around $20 million a year, probably $300 dollars over a course of 15 years.

On Monday, he will be in the Home Run Derby. On Tuesday, he will be in the All-Star Game.

Soto is one of the most exciting and best hitting players in baseball. Soto has been dominating since 2018. His MLB achievements as of Jun, 24th, 2022 include:

• 534 games, 2,310 plate appearances, 1,860 at-bats

• .289 batting average, .423 on-base percentage, .534 slugging percentage

• 538 hits, 112 home runs, eight triples, 103 doubles, 37 stolen bases

• 343 RBIs, 375 runs scored, 430 walks, 398 strikeouts
