I wonder if because he's making $70 million a year, the players were like,

you don't need $100,000, I'm not voting you into the All-Star game.

You think some players could have looked at that as a tie-breaks to be?

I mean, why not?

It's just interesting to think about.

Now, again, he's joking about the money because it is a rounding error given the value of his contract.

Yeah.

But it's still interesting that he brings up money and money might but one of the reasons that he didn't get into the All-Star game.

See, here's the way I viewed it. While I agreed that was tongue in cheek, I do think there's some truth to it too.

I do think his first thought after making it was,

damn, that's a miss bonus I could have made.

And I said to say, I don't blame Juan Soto if that's his first thought if they're not making the All-Star game.

By the way, all the contract details are still fresh in Juan Soto's head.

Yeah, you're right.

All-Star, Gold Glove, Hank Aaron, all MLB, or $100,000.

Which, again, for all he makes, does he really need the extra $100,000?

It's still $100,000.

That's $100,000.

I don't blame.

A new car.

I do not blame Juan Soto for being tongue in cheek, for being honest.

I don't blame him at all for looking at the financial aspect of it.
