It's been a tough week for New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto. Soto has been heavily criticized by the media for his perceived lack of hustle -- specifically on two plays; a check-swing groundout against the New York Yankees on Sunday night and a long single off the Green Monster against the Boston Red Sox on Monday.
