Who Would You Build an MLB Team Around in the 2020s?

As we've written in this space before, baseball is a young man's game more than ever. Players are coming up from the minors sooner and they're coming up as better players than the twentysomething (or teenagers) of eras past.

So with a new decade in front of us, which major league player would you want to build you team of the 2020s around?

Tom Verducci: Juan Soto

Soto will be 30 at the end of the next 10 seasons, so you're getting the best of his career. You might find somebody with a higher ceiling, but he's the safest bet to give you steady, elite returns over the next decade.
