Sounds like the media circus with Boras planting thoughts, has begun.
Got a Score alert that the Jays are definitely in it for Soto. Whether or not they are, I don't think the Jays management would get hopes up to their fanbase, so almost certainly they're not the ones leaking that info. Really sounds like Boras trying to force that upon the Jays to pony up their cash to not let their fanbase down.
Also there's a segment on TSN where Steve Philips thinks Vlad's contract is in the ballpark of $327 for 12 years. I have a problem with that term as nobody lives up to that, but the AAV truly isn't terrible. I don't think he's a generational talent as he believes. We don't know what he is as his numbers have been all over the map.
