Today's cast: Dan, Stugotz, Chris, Amin, Billy, David Samson, and Mike. David Samson has a TON of thoughts on Scott Boras negotiating the largest contract ever at 15 years and $765 million for Juan Soto, but we'll get to those in a minute. Dan, Stugotz, and the rest of the crew outside of Samson kick off today's show by laughing at the Yankees, looking at what Soto's signing means for MLB and the Mets, praising Steve Cohen, and watching videos of Yankees fans like John Turturro's brother losing their minds. Was Soto EVER going to sign with a team that didn't simply offer the most money? Eventually, Dan welcomes Samson into the fold and tells him to "eat it" after Scott Boras wins again. Folks, the horse is out of the barn. Plus, we hear from noted Yankees fan, Taylor, through a Soto serenade. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
