In light of a report that he turned down a 15-year, $440 million contract offer, Washington Nationals star Juan Soto faced questions about his future with the club Monday during media availability for the MLB All-Star Game in Los Angeles.
Soto called the leak "pretty frustrating," but said his motivation for now was to concentrate on baseball.
"It feels pretty tough, pretty frustrating, because I try to keep my stuff private," said Soto, who was named to his second straight All-Star Game. "I don't try to throw stuff out there. But it feels really bad. But at the end of the day, we just got to keep playing. It don't matter what's happening."
