Sources: Washington Nationals open to listening to Juan Soto trade offers after $440M contract rejected
The Washington Nationals are willing to listen to trade offers for Juan Soto after the star outfielder rejected their most recent long-term offer, league sources confirmed to ESPN on Saturday. Sources said Soto turned down a 15-year, $440 million offer that would have been the largest contract in baseball history.

Named an All-Star for the second straight season, Soto is hitting a career-low .247 in 2022 with 19 home runs and 42 RBIs in 89 games. He is set to compete in Monday's Home Run Derby.
