The vibes are at an all-time high for the New York Yankees, sitting at 9-2 on the season. With another impressive 7-0 win against the Miami Marlins, fans are ready to say that this team is much different than the one a year ago.
It’s been the Juan Soto show since he’s been traded to the Yankees. The left-handed slugger was viewed as one of the best hitters in baseball, and in his first 11 games in the Bronx, he’s proven exactly that.
Fans have been giving Soto everything he can ask for, and he’s acknowledged that plenty of times already, saying they’ve been showing him love.
The superstar spoke about hitting his home run and how the fans reacted with Bryan Hoch of MLB.com.
“They really surprised me with that one. I hit it pretty good. I was doubting, I was like, ‘Is it going to go? Is it going to stay?’ But then when that ball landed, they jumped out of their seats. It felt pretty good.”

The pairing has been clear for the two sides, especially with the way he’s playing. Soto is slashing .357/.462/.548 with two home runs and two doubles in 42 at-bats.
As he continues to produce and the fans show more and more love, the price only gets higher for what the Yankees will eventually have to pay him.
It’s been clear from the day he was traded to the team that the fan base wants him to sign a long-term extension. From what Soto has said, a deal certainly sounds possible if New York is willing to offer him the amount he’s looking for.
