Complacency Kills The $765 Million Athlete
Don’t believe me? Just ask every single fan who witnessed Juan Soto jog out of the box last night after hitting one to the Green monster. Not OVER the Monster, at it.
And it looks like Bleeding Yankee Blue was ahead of the curve. Remember our March 29th piece, BOOMER GOES OFF ON JUAN SOTO? We warned you. We practically begged you to listen. We said Soto would get complacent, that all those big bucks would dim his fire. And what happened the other night? Case in point.
Juan Soto stepped into the box, launched what he thought was a no-doubter, and then proceeded to admire it like he was Michelangelo staring at the Sistine Chapel. Problem is, the ball didn’t leave the yard—it smacked the wall and stayed in play. Soto trotted to first like he was headed to brunch, not a live basepath. If I’m a Mets fan, the damage was done. This dude’s image is shot.
After the game this toolbox had the nerve to say “I think I’ve been hustling pretty hard. If you see it today, you could tell.” What game was he at?
Juan Soto was asked about not hustling out of the box last night vs. the Yankees and tonight vs. the Red Sox

Translation: Act like you care, Juan.
Let’s face it—mentally, this guy knows he doesn’t need to work anymore… he’s getting paid no matter what. The fans see it. The media sees it. And yeah, BYB saw it coming months ago. In that March article, we wrote:
“Here’s the reality: not all big-money contracts work out. Players get complacent. Players age. And Soto? He’s going to decline, and it’s going to be painful to watch. Homers will come, sure. But a five-tool player? Not even close.”
Fast forward to now, and it’s déjà vu. Mets fans can cry about being in first place all they want, but if your superstar can’t be bothered to run out of the box, that shiny record starts to mean a lot less. Because what starts with a lazy trot becomes a habit—and that habit becomes culture.
When Soto was with the Yankees, he had something to prove. A contract to earn. A ring to chase. Now? He’s got 15 years to either put up… or fade quietly into overpaid irrelevance. And if this is a sign of what’s to come?
Pathetic.
