Juan Soto is bracing himself for "the worst" when he returns to Yankee Stadium in May for the first time since he signed with the Mets this offseason.

Aaron Boone had a message for Juan Soto ahead of his first season with the Mets. “I told him, ‘You look terrible in that uniform,'” the Yankees manager said Monday at Clover park ahead of the Subway Series exhibition game at Clover Park.

It certainly sounded like Yankees fans in attendance for the 6-6 tie were waiting for Soto’s name to be announced, eager to let him hear it. Many, if not most, are still bitter that the superstar outfielder bolted from the Bronx to Queens in free agency a few months ago, taking a record-setting deal from the Mets.
