• Mets' Juan Soto: Blasts 43rd homer

  09/25/2025 • By RotoWire

  Soto went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 10-3 loss to the Cubs. Soto provided New York with a late spark, launching a 397-foot shot in the eighth inning off of Aaron Civale for his 43rd homer of the season, though it only trimmed the deficit to seven runs. The star outfielder has now gone deep six times in his last 15 games, continuing a strong second half in which he's tallied 20 homers and 25 steals -- a milestone most players look to reach across an entire year. Still, his trademark plate discipline has slightly dipped, as his .399 OBP currently puts him at risk of finishing below the .400 mark for the first time in his career.

• Mets' Juan Soto: Closing in on 40 homers

  09/11/2025 • By RotoWire

  Soto went 3-for-5 with a double, a solo home run, a second run scored and a stolen base in Wednesday's loss to the Phillies. The Mets only had nine hits in total on the night in an 11-3 rout, and Soto had their only extra-base hits. The 26-year-old sits one long ball shy of his second straight 40-homer campaign, and he needs to drive in just five more runs for his third straight 100-RBI season, and the fourth of his career. Soto's been New York's only consistent hitter lately as the team clings to a wild-card spot, and over his last 12 games he sports a blistering .432/.545/1.000 slash line that includes seven home runs and eight steals.

• Mets' Juan Soto: Posts first 30-30 season

  09/10/2025 • By RotoWire

  Soto went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's loss to the Phillies. The steal was his 30th of the season, making Soto the first 30-30 player of 2025. It's also the first time the 26-year-old has reached that milestone in his career -- his previous career high in stolen bases was only 12 -- and per Anthony DiComo of MLB.com he became the fifth Met in history to produce a 30-30 campaign, joining Francisco Lindor, David Wright, Darryl Strawberry and three-time 30-30 man Howard Johnson. Soto needs two more home runs to join the 40-30 club, something only 12 players in MLB history have accomplished, including Hall of Famers Hank Aaron, Larry Walker and Jeff Bagwell, and current stars Ronald Acuna, Shohei Ohtani and Christian Yelich.
