Shocking news broke earlier Wednesday that Washington Nationals star Juan Soto had reportedly rejected a massive contract offer from the Washington Nationals. The news on the MLB star had people wondering two things- how much could Soto possibly want in a contract? And if it's not with the Nationals, where could he end up? Utah Jazz star Donovan Mitchell, an avid MLB fan himself, knows where he wants Soto to end up. The Jazz star hilariously recruited Soto on social media, as spotted by Talkin' Baseball on Twitter.

Jazz star Donovan Mitchell is hilariously trying to recruit MLB outfielder Juan Soto to the New York Mets. Mitchell, who hails from Elmsford, New York, would love to see the All-Star outfielder suiting up in Citi Field.

Soto reportedly turned down a 13-year, $350 million extension from the Nationals before the MLB lockout. The 23-year-old owns an incredible .301/.432/.550 slash line in four seasons and could be looking to command a massive deal.

To Mitchell's point, if there's one team that could afford to offer Soto a monster contract it's the Mets, who have spent big since they've been backed by owner Steve Cohen's riches.

It's unclear what MLB star Juan Soto's intentions are. However, Jazz star Donovan Mitchell's intentions were made clear by his own hilarious actions on social media. Mitchell wants Soto to be a Met.
