This week the Bronx Bombers clinched a playoff spot in the 2024 MLB playoffs. While the Mets are in a heated fight for one of the three Wild Card spots in the National League.<\/p>\n<p>It has been a very productive season for both teams. However, no matter what they do in October, the franchises are expected to be active in the offseason.

If Cole leaves, then anything is possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Soto is expected to get a contract worth over $500 million.
