In light of a report that he turned down a 15-year, $440 million contract offer, Washington Nationals star Juan Soto faced questions about his future with the club Monday during media availability for the MLB All-Star Game in Los Angeles.
Soto called the leak ¡°pretty frustrating,¡± but said his motivation for now was to concentrate on baseball.
¡°It feels pretty tough, pretty frustrating, because I try to keep my stuff private,¡± said Soto, who was named to his second straight All-Star Game. ¡°I don¡¯t try to throw stuff out there. But it feels really bad. But at the end of the day, we just got to keep playing. It don¡¯t matter what¡¯s happening.¡±
