If it is with heavy money deferred than that is a different story but many in the industry are talking like he is getting 700-800 million without deferrals which is ludicrous to me.
For what it is worth, Fangraph's WAR also has Soto a step behind when looking at equivalent aged seasons. I avoided comparisons of 19, 20, 21 due to Pujols debuting at 21 and Soto having a short season for his age 21 season. Pujols arguably had an 80 grade hit tool and 65-70 power. Soto is arguably a 60-70 hit tool with less power. He does have an 80 grade eye mind you.
