Juan Soto will have a decision to make sooner rather than later on whether to re-up with the New York Yankees.

Juan Soto has settled in just fine with the Yankees, marveling at the reach and intensity of the fan base, relishing New York's rich culture and, of course, hitting in a loaded lineup right in front of Aaron Judge. He'll have a decision to make sooner than later on whether to re-up, with his first time as a free agent looming in the fall. But perhaps he won't make it to the open market at all.

Asked about Steinbrenner's comments Thursday after the Yankees finished a sweep of the Minnesota Twins, Soto said his 'door has always been open' to doing a new deal before the fall but stressed that he's simply trying to prioritize playing well and fitting in. 'They know the phone number and everything. They know where to call. For me right here, I'm focusing on playing baseball. My thing is try to help the team win,' Soto said.
