Free agent Juan Soto has been the talk of the MLB off-season and has he gets closer to making his decision it looks like he has cross one of the final 5 teams off his list but the Toronto Blue Jays remain.
MLB insider Jon Morosi announced a couple days ago that he has heard from multiple sources that Juan Soto is expected to sign within the next 10 days which would make the announcement take place halfway through next week.
Reports suggest that Juan Soto has eliminated one team off his list as there is now only 4 teams left
According to reports, Soto has began to narrow down his search for a new team and has decided to eliminate the Los Angeles Dodgers from the final teams in contention to land him this off-season.
Sources: Juan Soto has informed the
@Dodgers
that he will NOT be joining there team this winter. #Dodgers are OUT! #RedSox #Mets #Jays #Yankees remain in! Hearing that is also the order as it stands now. Expect a decision this weekend if not before. #Yankees have lowest offer.

Many are surprised to see that the New York Yankees are still there despite apparently having the lowest first offer out of the final 5 teams but their is probably some bias there since they are his former team.
Soto's agent Scott Boras has also mentioned that he has begun the elimination process which further confirms the reports that he has decided to eliminate the Dodgers.
Scott Boras said Juan Soto has «begun the process of eliminating teams.» Signing is not imminent.
Fans are pretty happy to find out that Soto will not be headed to the Dodgers since it would be getting out of hand with them landing Blake Snell this off-season plus already having Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman,Mookie Betts and pretty much the rest of their lineup.
As Soto continues to narrow down his decision their will likely only be 2 teams remaining by the end of the week.
