Donovan Mitchell has message for Juan Soto

Donovan Mitchell had a message for Juan Soto in light of news about the Washington Nationals outfielder.

A report on Wednesday said that Soto turned down a 13-year, $350 million contract offer from the Nats prior to the lockout in December.

Soto is planning to take things year-to-year and possibly hit free agency when he is eligible in 2025.

Mitchell, a Utah Jazz star guard who is a New York Mets fan, told Soto to come to the Mets.

The Mets would probably love to have Soto, but the Nats will likely make strong efforts to retain him.

When the time comes, Soto will likely be eyeing even more than $350 million in his next contract. He appears to be in no rush to sign a deal.
