Yankees DESPERATELY Want To Keep Aaron Judge, But How Much Will He Cost Them?

Aaron Judge

The 2022 MLB season has been the year of Aaron Judge. By hitting as many as 62 Home Runs in a single season, the New York Yankees slugger has basically carried his team on the shoulder to the ALDS. However, as the season is coming to a close, many Yankees fans are getting anxious about whether they will see Judge donning the Pinstripe Blues next year. But how much would that cost the Yankees if it were to happen?

How Much Will Aaron Judge Cost To The Yankees?

After the 2022 postseason, the New York Yankees will need to make a significant choice about star outfielder Aaron Judge. A seven-year contract worth $31.5 million per season was put out to Judge by general manager Brian Cashman. But his price tag will rise highly after he has broken many outstanding records and had one of the finest seasons in baseball history.

   

Evidently, Aaron Judge will be a free agent after this MLB season. The San Francisco Giants are among the teams prepared to outbid the Yankees in order to retain the talent. Following a terrible 2022 campaign, the Giants will aim to bolster their roster with one of the leading contenders for season MVP. While Judge would prefer to remain in the Bronx. He would go wherever the money is so that the Yankees would be aggressive in their pursuit of him. A club with a reputation for keeping hold of famous players. Especially those for whom a section of the stadium has been hollowed out would suffer greatly by losing Judge.

On the other side, there will be clubs attempting to grab Aaron Judge from the Yankees. Most notably, the San Francisco Giants and maybe the New York Mets. According to Steve Cohen, they have an endless supply of money. However, the Steinbrenner family has the financial capacity to retain their position as a dominant force for some time by bringing Judge back.

They may start by trying to get rid of Aaron Hicks\’ and Josh Donaldson\’s contracts and filling those spots with younger players like Oswaldo Cabrera and Oswald Peraza. The organization also anticipates bringing Anthony Volpe to the majors at some time in 2023. Especially after stifling Triple-A competition at the end of the 2022 season. As per an MLB insider, the Giants may be one of the top candidates to be Judge\’s next stop. They are prepared to negotiate a deal with a value of $259-375M and a duration of seven to ten years. The services of Aaron Judge will cost a lot of money for anyone who wants to hire
