Look I am not here to say that people need to keep their kids off social media butttttt I will say this has now become a reoccurring thing first with the Texas Rangers in 2022 and all signs are now pointing to this happening once more with the Mets in 2024. For those that did not know in a previous Stacker Sports post about Juan Soto’s contract one of the surprising things was how it was being reported that 15 years was being offered to him.
Welp, thanks to TikTok we can connect some easy dots as a user, who has since erased their account, adrianm2864 whose name is Adrian got into a TikTok spat with people over the idea of Juan Soto going to the Red Sox. He said it wasn’t going to happen and when pressed said the Mets had offered $700 million over 15 years. People laughed at that and in the classic entitled kid way went “do you know who I am.”
Well, people then went to his account and saw he had two videos posted from months ago. The first one is of him and Fransico Lindor playing catch and then months later a video of Met’s manager’s speech after clinching a playoff berth asking if his dad’s speech was good. Unsurprisingly the Met’s manager does have a son named Adrian and while this could be all fake months upon months of planning would have had to go into this which would be a pretty absurd thing to do.
To me as soon as the account got deleted/wiped I think this adds a pretty decent level of credibility to the claims made. It is known that kids make dumb mistakes and like to prove they are right especially if they know something others do not. It’s a flex and it seems to be that at least here a contract offer was legitimately exposed.

YEP!!! I just stumbled across the story on YouTube and then as I checked it out... well the more I looked the more it does seem that this kid leaked the Met's offer
