Yes and have Duran or Rafaela in CF covering a lot of ground. I don't think Soto will ever be as bad as Yoshi so he will at least be playable with better defenders around him. It sounds like the Mets are the front runners so I'm not expecting to get him but it would be fun because it's been a long time since the Sox have made a big splash in free agency or a trade.
