The New York Yankees would like nothing more than to kick off their offseason by re-signing superstar outfielder Juan Soto. If they can't, they reportedly have a much less straightforward Plan B. More news: Juan Soto Seeking More Than Money in Free Agent Discussions: Report Bob Nightengale of USA Today reported Monday that the Yankees would seek multiple positions to upgrade if they cannot sign Soto,

"If the New York Yankees don’t re-sign Juan Soto, one back-up plan floating around is signing free-agent first baseman Christian Walker, sign either Willy Adames or Alex Bregman to play third, shift Jazz Chisholm to second base, trade for Cubs center fielder Cody Bellinger, and then use the extra money to sign Burnes, Fried or Snell."

The Philadelphia Phillies "haven't had a single conversation" with the agent for star slugger Juan Soto, according to USA Today's Bob Nightengale.
