The retired slugger has a unique perspective on Juan Soto's decision to leave the Yankees for the Mets.
Darryl Strawberry was paying close attention when Juan Soto's left the Yankees to sign with the Mets this week.didn’t just play in the Bronx and Flushing, the former right fielder was a two-borough star who is beloved to this day. Strawberry rode the wave of the Mets’ best years in the ‘80s and hopped on board with the Yankees’ monolith in the late ‘90s.arrived in the Bronx just in time to send the Yankees to the World Series and is now on a reverse migration to Flushing.
“But Mets fans are hungry. They’re dying for someone who can change the culture. That’s the right team for Soto.” It takes guts to accept that challenge. That’s especially true for Soto, who became the most hated man in the Bronx after turning down Yankees owner I decided to play devil’s advocate with Strawberry: I pointed out that Soto turned his back on the Yankees’ legacy and the chance to win multiple pennants in a less-challenging American League.
