Mets' Future Strategy After Record-Breaking Juan Soto Deal

The New York Mets have signed Juan Soto to a record-breaking 15-year, $765 million contract, making him the centerpiece of their roster. To build a championship team around Soto, the Mets need to strengthen their rotation, decide on re-signing or replacing Pete Alonso, and bolster their bullpen. Despite recent signings like Frankie Montas and Clay Holmes, the Mets' rotation remains thin, and they may explore trades for additional pitching talent. The team also needs to address their infield, potentially by re-signing Alonso or acquiring a new third baseman, and continue finding cost-effective bullpen reinforcements.
