Welcome to our deep dive into what might be considered some of the most questionable contracts in Major League Baseball history! In this video, we dissect the deals of some of the biggest names in baseball — Aaron Judge, Juan Soto, Trea Turner, Max Fried, Willy Adames, and Mike Trout — and discuss why these agreements might not be the best value for their respective teams. Aaron Judge - With a massive nine-year, $360 million contract with the New York Yankees, we explore how his performance metrics and health concerns could pose risks for such a long-term deal. Juan Soto - Recently signed to the Mets for a staggering 15-year, $765 million, Soto's contract is the largest in professional sports history. We analyze if this deal could age poorly based on his track record and future performance expectations. Trea Turner - His 11-year, $300 million contract with the Philadelphia Phillies has had its highs and lows. We look into his performance stats, particularly his struggles in the first year of the contract, to evaluate whether this investment might become a financial burden. Max Fried - Signed by the New York Yankees for eight years at $218 million, Fried's contract raises eyebrows due to past injury concerns. We discuss how his health could impact his effectiveness, potentially making this a risky contract. Willy Adames - With a new seven-year, $182 million deal from the San Francisco Giants, we assess whether Adames can maintain his performance level throughout the contract, especially considering his defensive metrics and consistency. Mike Trout - Often seen as a sure bet, Trout's 12-year, $426.5 million extension with the Angels has been marred by injuries. We explore how his declining health and play time affect the value of this contract moving forward. Join us as we break down each player's contract, look at their current performance, injury history, and potential future contributions.
