My Take
What I admire most about Juan Soto is not the power but the discipline. Plenty of hitters can drive a ball; very few have the nerve, at barely twenty, to stare down a full count and trust their own eyes. That patience is character, not coaching. The Soto Shuffle gets the highlights, but the real magic is the strike zone he seems to own. He has bounced between elite franchises and kept his identity intact at every stop, which to me is the surest sign of a generational hitter rather than a passing star.
