Six days before the Dominican outfielder Juan Soto signed a contract with the New York Mets for 15 years and $765 million, N Digital obtained, exclusively, the forecast from 19 of the country’s top sports journalists. All agreed that a megacontract was looming for the talented slugger.
Now, beyond opinions on social media, sports shows and other platforms about Soto’s performance and future, Venezuelan analyst Zabdy Jiménez (@alosdatos), known for his advanced-statistics approach, recently presented the most up‑to‑date data on the player.
“My people, don’t shout that it’s worse, Juan Soto is a beast, and there’s no debate about that. To the data: he not only has 36 home runs, and it’s almost certain he’ll reach 40—watch out—but he also has 90 RBIs with an OPS over 900+. Add to that, the guy has 136 games out of 138 in his pocket and it’s very likely he’ll reach 160,” he explained.
STATS THAT SUPPORT SOTO’S GREATNESS
With the data in hand, the outfielder’s exceptional performance is confirmed:
Offensive WAR: 6.1 (only behind Aaron Judge and Cal Raleigh, both of the American League). Home runs: 37, runs scored: 106, RBIs: 91, stolen bases: 27, on‑base percentage (OBP): .399. OPS: 923, OPS+: 161, batting average: .259
These statistics not only confirm Soto’s current impact, but also reinforce his projection as one of the best offensive players in the Major Leagues heading into the 2025 season and beyond.
