New York Mets owner Steve Cohen is scheduled to meet with free-agent outfielder Juan Soto and Soto's agent, Scott Boras, next week in Southern California, according to the New York Post. Soto and Boras are expected to meet with other owners and braintrust groups between now and whenever Soto makes his decision.

Scott Boras is starting to let out some morsels of information in the Juan Soto sweepstakes. The mega agent told reporters at the GM Meetings in San Antonio his client and the sport’s top free agent is prioritizing playing for teams with owners committed to “winning,” as noted by Newsday.

The Mets have been expected to line up as one of Juan Soto ’s primary suitors all winter, and after reaching out to agent Scott Boras on day one of the offseason, owner Steve Cohen is now set for an in-person visit with Soto and his agent in Southern California next week,
