Juan Soto career

In July 2015, Soto signed a contract as an international free agent with the Washington Nationals. In the rookie-level Gulf Coast League (GCL), he made his professional debut in 2016 with the Gulf Coast League Nationals. After hitting.368 with five home runs and 32 runs batted in (RBIs), he was voted the GCL’s most valuable player.

For the last few games of the 2016 season, he was promoted to the Auburn Doubledays of the Class A-Short Season New York-Penn League in September of that year.

He played in six Doubledays games, going 9-for-21 (.429) with three doubles and one RBI. With five home runs, 32 RBIs, and an overall batting average of.368, he concluded the 2016 season.

On May 20, 2018, Soto made his main-league debut, making history as the first player born in 1998 to appear in a major league game and as the youngest player in the major leagues at 19 years, and 207 days.

In the eighth inning of a game played at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C., between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the pinch hitter, he struck out swinging against right-handed relief pitcher Erik Goeddel.

The following day, Soto started his first major league game at Nationals Park, playing left field against the San Diego Padres. He reached base on the first pitch of his first at-bat and launched his first major-league home slam, a 422-foot (129-meter) opposite-field three-run blast off of Robbie Erlin.

On August 19, 2019, Soto joined Mel Ott, Tony Conigliaro, and former teammate Bryce Harper as the only players in MLB history to record 100 extra-base hits before to turning 21.

Subsequently, he made history as the seventh MLB player to hit 30 home runs prior to turning 21. 2019 saw him bat. With 108 walks in the third, 34 home runs, 110 RBIs in the ninth, and 282/.401/.548 with 110 runs (7th), he also stole 12 bases in 13 attempts.

Prior to the first game of the abbreviated 2020 season on July 23, 2020, it was revealed that Soto had tested positive for COVID-19.

In order to avoid arbitration, Soto agreed to a $17.1 million contract with the Nationals on March 22, 2022. Soto blasted the 100th home run of his career off Braves pitcher Bryce Elder on April 12.

Josh Bell and Soto were sent to the San Diego Padres on August 2, 2022, along with CJ Abrams, MacKenzie Gore, Robert Hassell, James Wood, Jarlín Susana, and Luke Voit. The size of the transaction was compared to the NFL Herschel Walker deal.

Ten days after being dealt to the Padres, on August 12, 2022, Soto played the Nationals in Washington, D.C., and the audience gave him a standing ovation that lasted for forty-five seconds.

Soto played 51 games with the Padres for the balance of the 2022 season, accumulating a.236 batting average, 6 home runs, 16 RBI, and 36 walks.
