The New York Mets have been projected as the destination for the Japanese phenom, upsetting the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers.

According to agent Joel Wolfe, ace Japanese right-hander Roki Sasaki is "calling the shots'' during the process of selecting an MLB club.

As the New York Yankees and the New York Mets extend offers to Japanese sensation Roki Sasaki, his manager has revealed the potential path for Sasaki to make his move to MLB. One country that has proven to be a hotbed for young talent in Major League Baseball (MLB) is Japan.

The New York Yankees have yet to figure out what to do about the gaping hole in their offense left by Juan Soto, when the 26-year-old generational slugger accepted a contract from the New York Mets that could end up paying him as much as $820 million over the next 15 years.

The Toronto Blue Jays could lose Vladimir Guerrero Jr. in free agency and could trade him to the New York Yankees for a prospect haul before that happens.

December 8 was not a good day for the New York Yankees or its fanbase. This is because former Yankees superstar Juan Soto signed with the cross-town Mets instead of accepting a $16-year, $760 million contract his former club offered.
