The FOX Sports MLB staff answer five burning questions, including where Juan Soto will sign, the AL East winner, the NL wild-card race, NL ROY and pitching X-factors.
Lost in the brilliance of Aaron Judge, Shohei Ohtani and Bobby Witt Jr. is how Juan Soto is producing the best full season of his already prolific career. It's only raised the price for what figures to be a record-setting deal this winter for a position player. The bigger question is, where will the 25-year-old superstar sign? Unknowns abound throughout MLB, as the American League East is virtually even with just three weeks remaining, as are the NL wild-card and Rookie of the Year races.
