WHAT A JUAN-DERFUL WORLD.



When I woke up this morning, my mind was set on writing an article about what the signing of Juan Soto means to the Mets and the monumental impact he’ll have over the next 15 years. But as I started thinking about the magnitude of the moment, my thoughts kept drifting to Louis Armstrong’s classic, What a Wonderful World. Instead of diving into the analysis just yet, I decided to channel my excitement into something a little different. So, the standard article will come later. For now, I present to you my enhanced version of the iconic song (with a little help from ChatGPT)—sung to the tune of What a Wonderful World.



I see piles of green,

An opt-out too,

15 years, 765 mil—what a coup!

And I think to myself,What a Juan-derful world.


I see Lindor’s bright smile,

And Shaggy V’s might,

Álvarez behind the plate,

Nimmo's speed taking flight.

And I think to myself,What a Juan-derful world.


The colors of the rainbow,

In Queens now shine high,

I see Yankee fans cry,

And glare at the sky.

I see Uncle Steve's dollars,

Luring Soto away,

From the Bronx Evil Empire,

To Queens, where He’ll play.


I hear trumpets play,

Edwin's closing the door,

A Mets dynasty rising,

With Soto to score.

And I think to myself,

What a Juan-derful world.


Yes, I think to myself,

What a Juan-derful world.

Ooh, yes!
