The Mets and owner Steve Cohen met with free agent Juan Soto and his agent Scott Boras in California on Saturday.

Boras clients failed to dominate the market last winter. Now Boras is back with a stacked roster and a chance to prove that was just a blip.

In the four years since Cohen purchased the team, Boras has demonstrated that his long-standing, career-making ability to convince owners to spend big — spend massive — on players very much extends to the Wall Street giant-turned-Mets boss. And Cohen is very much a willing participant.
