Juan Soto is moving from the Bronx to Queens, and he's taking a record-breaking amount of money with him.
The star free agent reportedly agreed to a 15-year, $765 million dollar contract on Sunday with the New York Mets for what is the largest deal in professional sports history.
The total value of the contract puts him ahead of the previous record holder: Shohei Ohtani, who signed a 10-year, $700 million contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers last year and still holds the mark for average total value at $70 million per year.
Soto is projected to make $314,815 per game over the life of the contract, and that's before possible incentives might increase the total value above $800 million.
