wire, and one team wants to ensure it has a chance to land the top prize of the offseason. <\/p>\n<p>While the Red Sox have increased their offer to at least $600 million, they have interest in another meeting with Soto and agent Scott Boras so they can hit land on a number that can get the outfielder to sign in Boston, <a

Globe<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This desire to have another meeting, according to the outlet\u2019s Thursday reporting, comes from the fact that Boston has heard rumors that Mets owner Steve Cohen could offer to go $50 million above other teams, though it\u2019s not clear if Cohen will actually do this.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"nyp-slideshow-modal-image wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><figcaption>Juan

even happen, the Globe has noted. <\/p>\n<p>This comes after <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2024\/12\/03\/sports\/all-signs-point-to-juan-soto-being-a-600-million-man-in-free-agency\/\">The Post\u2019s Jon Heyman and Joel Sherman reported<\/a> that Soto is expected to get a deal of at least $600 million and could even set an MLB record for current contract value.<\/p>\n<aside

told Sherman this week that they view the Red Sox as \u201cserious\u201d bidders in the Soto derby. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHere is why I think they are serious: They have disappointed their fan base so much
