After over a month of rumors of going to another team, Al Home Run King, Aaron Judge, [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/aaron-judge/] re-signed with the Yankees. The contract that he signed, $360 million for nine years, is the largest one ever signed in the history of the New York Yankees. But in the 2022 off-season, Judge fell behind the World Baseball Classic champion, Shohei Ohtani. Nonetheless, Ohtani wasn’t the only player who was above Judge. Two more players left All Rise behind in terms of earning an Average Annual (AA) salary. ASIDE FROM SHOHEI OHTANI, WHO LEFT THE MIGHTY AARON JUDGE BEHIND? LA Angels’ two-way phenom Shohei Ohtani [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/shohei-ohtani/] is coming off a tremendous World Baseball Classic victory representing team Japan. Aside from baseball, Ohtani’s off-field achievements have pushed his endorsement earnings to the highest in MLB’s history. After concluding his agreements, Ohtani will make around $70 million in 2023, according to Sportico’s [https://www.sportico.com/personalities/athletes/2023/mlb-highest-paid-players-2023-scherzer-judge-ohtani-1234717401/] latest list of the top 10 highest paid MLB players. Needless to say, this is the highest salary for any player in the big league.

Taking the third position is yet another Mets player, Justin Verlander, with an estimated income of $44.3 million. This makes Big Aaron Judge take the fourth position in earnings for 2023, with a total of $44 million. One would have thought after signing one of the biggest contracts in the off-season and the Yankees’ history, Aaron Judge would be at the top. But, it does not look like happening. WHO ELSE IS IN MLB’S TOP-EARNING CLUB? The player following Aaron Judge in the list is none other than the World Baseball Classic runner-up, Angels’ Mike Trout [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/mike-trout/], with projected earnings of $40.5 million.

Aaron Judge

Aaron Judge Net Worth 2024: Contract, Earnings, Endorsements, and More 6 feet 7 inches tall, Aaron Judge made his MLB debut with the New York Yankees in 2016. With his mammoth size as an instant standout point, Judge became the face of the Yankees right after he smashed 52 homers in 2017 and won the AL Rookie of the Year award. Since then, the 30-year-old outfielder&#8217;s journey to the helm of the iconic Bronx has been nothing but inspiring. How much Aaron Judge would earn in 2024: An insight into his net worth Based on a detailed analysis carried out by the FanFest, the 2022 AL MVP&#8217;s net worth is estimated to be approximately $55 million in 2024. NEW YORK, NEW YORK &#8211; OCTOBER 03: Aaron Judge #99 of the New York Yankees celebrates after hitting a walk-off single in the bottom of the ninth inning to beat the Tampa Bay Rays 1-0 at Yankee Stadium on October 03, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Mike Stobe/Getty Images) From 2016 to 2022, Aaron Judge earned an impressive cumulative salary of $40 million in Major League Baseball (MLB). Besides Judge has secured several lucrative endorsement deals. From Where Aaron Judgeâ€™s family hails from: Know about his early life and family background Born and brought up in California, Aaron Judge was adopted two days after he was born on April 26, 1992. Although Aaron is an American by nationality, his ethnicity is biracial. There is no information available about his biological parents, and as far as Aaron Judge is concerned, he has only one set of parents, the ones that raised him. In terms of his religious beliefs, Judge&#8217;s Instagram and Twitter profiles read &#8220;Christian.&#8221; He&#8217;s also spoken about his favorite verse from the Bible, 2 Corinthians 5:7:? For we walk by faith, not by sight.? Both his parents, Patty Judge and Wayne Judge, worked as teachers in Linden, California. Like Aaron and his wife Samantha, who eventually became high school sweethearts, Patty and Wayne too met at Fresno State University. In 1975, Patty and Wayne married, and ten years later, they adopted their first son, John Jacob. Seven years after adopting Aaron&#8217;s older brother John, Patty and Wayne met Aaron, &#8220;who was a pretty big baby,&#8221; when he was only two days old, and adopted him in 1992. At the tender age of 10, Aaron realized that he didn&#8217;t look like his parents and started asking questions. Both Patty and Wayne were transparent with him and told him the truth about his adoption. Over the years, Aaron has maintained a very close relationship with his parents. In fact, his sole source of inspiration was his mother, Patty, who is also the reason Aaron Judge eventually became a Yankee. In a 2017 interview, Judge said, &#8220;I know I wouldn&#8217;t be a New York Yankee if it wasn&#8217;t for my mom&#8230;She&#8217;s molded me into the person that I am today.&#8221; ? How long has Aaron Judge been married to Samantha Bracksieck?Â  Samantha Bracksieck is the 29-year-old wife of Aaron Judge, the current New York Yankees captain. Their love story began during their high school days at Linden High School in California, where they met and started dating, but their relationship was on and off throughout their time there. Aaron and Samantha reunited at Fresno State University after their high school days came to an end, and they have been together since. In 2014, Judge made their relationship &#8220;official&#8221; through a Thanksgiving post featuring Samantha. The two tied the knot in a private ceremony in Maui, Hawaii, in 2020, with some of Aaron&#8217;s Yankee teammates in attendance, including Gary Sanchez, Luis Cessa, and Gleyber Torres. A talented athlete: Sports Aaron Judge excelled during his school and college days Growing up near the Bay Area, Aaron Judge was a massive San Francisco Giants fan before he eventually arrived in the Big Apple. The future New York Yankees captain played and mastered three sports during his high school days at Linden High School. He played as a wide receiver on the football team, a first baseman for the baseball team, and a center in basketball. Eventually, in 2010, Judge graduated from high school and got picked by the Oakland Athletics in the 2010 MLB draft. However, in 2011, Judge opted out and enrolled at Fresno State University to play for the Bulldogs in the Western Athletic Conference. From being a part of a Fresno State team to leading the Bulldogs in home runs, doubles, and runs batted in (RBIs), Judge was named to the all-conference team in all three of his seasons for the Bulldogs. Made for MLB: A look into his baseball career After opting out of the Athletics in 2010, Aaron Judge returned to the MLB Draft in 2013 and was selected by the New York Yankees in the first round as the 32nd overall selection. The Pinstripes offered Judge a $1.8 million signing bonus. Unfortunately for a young Aaron, he had to miss the entire 2013 season due to an injury during a base running drill. NEW YORK, NEW YORK &#8211; MAY 24: Aaron Judge #99 of the New York Yankees swings at a pitch during the third inning against the Baltimore Orioles at Yankee Stadium on May 24, 2023 in the Bronx borough of New York City. (Photo by Sarah Stier/Getty Images) Three years later, in August 2016, he made his MLB debut with the New York Yankees against the Tampa Bay Rays, starting at right field. Just like his first minor league season, his 2016 season too ended abruptly after he was placed on the 15-day injured list in September. Before the start of the 2017 season, the Yanks named Aaron Judge as their Opening Day right fielder, and it was the beginning of a new era in the Yankees&#8217; history. In his first full season, Judge smashed 52 homers, led the AL home run leader chart, won the Rookie of the Year award, and made his first All-Star appearances. From then on, Judge established his presence in the big leagues, and the Yankees found a bankable outfielder. Little did they know that they had also found their future captain. By 2022, which turned out to be Judge&#8217;s career-defining season, he was already the face of the Yankees and the expected captain. The slugger surpassed every possible expectation, smashed 62 homers, won the AL Hank Aaron Award, almost won the Triple Crown for the first time since 2012, and most importantly, won the American League MVP award. As a result of a spectacular 2022 season, Judge was appointed the captain of the New York Yankees on Opening Day 2023 for the next nine years. Judge entered the 2023 season with a $40 million salary, &#8220;the third-highest in baseball&#8221;, hanging below pitchers Max Scherzer and Justin Verlander. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON &#8211; MAY 29: Aaron Judge #99 of the New York Yankees celebrates with teammates after hitting a one-run home run during the sixth inning against the Seattle Mariners at T-Mobile Park on May 29, 2023 in Seattle, Washington. (Photo by Alika Jenner/Getty Images) Before the 2023 began, many expected Judge to hit 60 homers again or maybe surpass his record from a year before. After hitting 5 HRs in April, Aaron&#8217;s bat heated up to 12 HRs in May. Shortly after, on June 4th, Judge pursued a ball hit by Los Angeles Dodgers slugger JD Martinez, making the catch but crashing through an outfield gate at Dodger Stadium and fracturing his big toe. Intended to be on a 10-day IL, he missed around 2 months of play, with Shohei Ohtani taking the lead.Â  Despite Judge&#8217;s heroics after returning from IL, the Yankees underperformed, failing to win the AL East and ultimately falling short of the playoffs. Judge himself expressed disappointment with the team&#8217;s outcome, calling the season a &#8220;failure.&#8221; Overall, Judge&#8217;s 2023 season was a testament to his individual talent, but it also highlighted the importance of team performance in achieving ultimate success. Here are some of the key highlights from Aaron Judge&#8217;s baseball career so far: All-MLB Second Team (2023) Roberto Clemente Award (2023) AL MVP (2022) AL Hank Aaron Award (2022) AL RBI leader (2022) AP Athlete of the Year (2022) 2x All-MLB First Team (2021, 2022) Wilson Defensive Player of the Year Award (2019) 2x AL home run leader (2017, 2022) AL Rookie of the Year (2017) 3x Silver Slugger Award (2017, 2021, 2022) 5x All-Star (2017, 2018, 2021, 2022, 2023) The success of the New York Yankees in 2024 depends on Captain Aaron Judge staying injury-free and delivering consistent performances. A Yankees faithful: The story behind his MLB contract In 2013, after Aaron Judge signed with the New York Yankees after the MLB draft, he received a $1.8 million signing bonus. Eventually, in 2016, Judge made his debut with the New York Yankees. Following that, until the end of 2022, when he would be eligible to be a free agent, he continued to avoid arbitration. In 2022, after failed negotiations for a seven-year contract worth $213.5 million, Judge signed a one-year contract with the Yankees for $19 million and avoided arbitration again. BRONX, NEW YORK &#8211; DECEMBER 21: Aaron Judge #99 of the New York Yankees speaks to the media during a press conference at Yankee Stadium on December 21, 2022 in Bronx, New York. (Photo by Dustin Satloff/Getty Images) Before entering his career-defining 2022 season, Aaron Judge placed a massive bet on himself. The outfielder strongly believed he deserved more than a $230 million contract for eight years. As the 2022 season started, not only did Judge prove every critic wrong, but he also established himself as a player who wouldn&#8217;t succumb to pressure. After smashing 62 homers, setting a new American League record, and almost carrying the New York Yankees to the ALCS, the 2023 offseason was bound to be fruitful for the future Yankees captain. The Bronx Bombers found competition in the Golden State&#8217;s San Francisco Giants, who were ready to put up a bid war. According to various reports, the Giants were offering Judge a whopping $360 million contract, while the Yankees were stuck at $320 million over eight years. However, a phone call between Aaron Judge and Pinstripes owner Hal Steinbrenner changed his destiny, as the outfielder decided to sign a $360 million contract with the New York Yankees for nine years. Concurrently, Judge was also elected as the Yankees captain, the first captain to fill Derek Jeter&#8216;s shoes since his retirement in 2014.

(Photo by Dustin Satloff/Getty Images) Given his physical stature and massive hitting ability in the box, endorsements quickly started lining up for Aaron Judge. In November 2017, MLB The Show 18 revealed that Judge would be their cover athlete for the 2018 edition. In the same year, he signed an endorsement deal with Pepsi. Through the 2018 season, Aaron Judge signed a contract with Adidas, which ended his contract with Under Armor in 2014. Some of the other top brands that have signed Aaron Judge for endorsements include Hulu, Jersey Mike&#8217;s, JBL, Oakley, Bloomingdale&#8217;s, Esurance, T-Mobile, Fanatics, FanJolt, WIN Reality, Topps, Franklin, Sorare MLB, Waiakea, and A SHOC Energy. A champion off the field: Know more about his philanthropic workÂ  In 2018, Aaron Judge established the All Rise Foundation to inspire young people in the United States by engaging them in endeavors and events that demonstrate the abundance of boundless possibilities. The All Rise Foundation&#8217;s board of directors is entirely composed of women, with Patty Judge Aaron Judge&#8217;s mother serving as both, the executive director and president of the foundation. Samantha is actively involved in Aaron&#8217;s All Rise Foundation, where she plays a crucial role in the foundation&#8217;s operations.

In a decade where the player seemed to dominate most individual stat records, one would be remiss to mention that Trout&#8217;s contribution to baseball in the 2010s. Despite some great hitting and offensive outputs that Trout has managed to put together, the LA Angels could not put together a coherent post-season run and have on occasion underperformed too. Trout, however, remains a fan favorite and a media darling amid his other-worldly output. A rare combination in today&#8217;s game. Who is Mike Trout? All to know about 11x all-star Mike Trout is a professional baseball center fielder for the Los Angeles Angels in the Major League baseball.

Jeff could only play the minor league for four years due to his career-ending injury.

In the summer before his senior year, Trout attended the Area Code Games in southern California, playing against some of the best players in the country.

<h2 style="color: #252525;text-align: center">What is the net worth of Los Angeles Dodgers' star Shohei Ohtani?</h2>
As described by the media and his sponsors, Shohei Ohtani is a once-in-a-lifetime talent who recently inked a history-breaking $700 million deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers. According to various sources, Shohei Ohtani's net worth was approximately $50 million in 2023, prior to landing a deal with the Dodgers.Â 


[caption id="attachment_2541444" align="aligncenter" width="8001"]<img class="size-full wp-image-2541444" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2023-12-22T010301Z_1643876178_MT1USATODAY22156122_RTRMADP_3_NFL-NEW-ORLEANS-SAINTS-AT-LOS-ANGELES-RAMS.jpg" alt="" width="8001" height="5334" /> Dec 21, 2023; Inglewood, California, USA; Los Angeles Dodgers player Shohei Ohtani attends the game between the Los Angeles Rams and the New Orleans Saints at SoFi Stadium.

While the specifics of the contract clauses are kept confidential, industry experts speculate that Ohtani stands to potentially earn approximately $105 million annually in 2024. This estimated sum combines his salary from the Dodgers and endorsement deals. With Ohtani being a generational talent, his parents deserve a special mention.

<h2 style="color: #252525;text-align: center">Who are his parents? All you need to know about his life and family</h2>
On July 5th, 1994, the baseball unicorn-to-be was born to Toru and Kayoko Ohtani in Oshu, Japan. For the unversed, Sho-time hails from a family of athletes. On the one hand, his father, Toru, earned a livelihood by working in a local automobile manufacturing plant in the same country, and he was an avid baseball player in the Japanese Industrial League. Recognizing young Shohei's natural talent for the game, Toru understood the importance of wholeheartedly dedicating himself to coaching his son.
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2571375" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Ohtani-Parents.png" alt="" width="1132" height="822" />
On the other hand, Shoheiâ€™s mother was in a different league altogether. In her high school days, Kayoko actively played badminton, which led her school authorities to keep her reserved for the local games. 
In a brief span, her exceptional skills on the court propelled her to the national level. Nevertheless, she opted to retire from sports in her late twenties and prioritized her family.
Ryuta Ohtani, the older brother of Shohei, initially pursued a career as an amateur baseball player and later transitioned into coaching for a corporate baseball team. Meanwhile, their sister, Yuka, engaged in volleyball during her teenage years before embarking on a career in the medical field. It is safe to say that sports run in the blood of the Ohtanis.

<h2 style="color: #252525;text-align: center">A Star on the Diamond: A Look at Shohei Ohtaniâ€™s Baseball Career</h2>
After being trained by his father, the now-best baseball player in the world", he attended Hanamaki Higashi High School, pitching for the school team. At just 18, Ohtani showed his incredible pitching ability by tossing a near-100-mph fastball.
Although he wished to join the major leagues right after high school, Ohtani joined the Japanese team Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters in 2013. It was here that Ohtani honed his skills as a hitter and a pitcher to become one of the hottest prospects in baseball. He recorded some of the best statistics of any Japanese player, ranging from strikeouts to home runs in the sport's history.

Amidst interest from many MLB teams, Ohtani signed with the Los Angeles Angels in December 2017. He played his first MLB game against the Oakland Athletics on March 29, 2018. During this game, he played as a designated hitter, hitting a single on his first at-bat. Two days later, he made his pitching debut against the same opponents.
He won the American League Rookie of the Year in 2018, marking his potential for the rest of the MLB. However, he suffered a bipartite patella injury in 2019, which cut short his second MLB season. Prior to this, the Japanese star underwent Tommy John surgery, which put his pitching career in doubt.
In 2020, Ohtani suffered a flexor strain on his elbow, which once again endangered his pitching capability. However, the then-27-year-old produced one of his finest MLB seasons in 2021, both as a pitcher and a hitter. After delivering one of the best and most remarkable seasons in 2022, Ohtani asserted, â€œMy pitching numbers are better. Iâ€™m just playing with more confidence after experiencing last year.â€

In his sixth Major League season with the Angels, the 29-year-old has garnered various accolades in both diamond and mound. From ranking in the Top Four in the American League in home runs and recording a second career 40+ HR season as a hitter to leading the AL to pitching his first career complete game and first shutout as a pitcher to record 10+ pitching wins and 30+ HR for a second consecutive season. In every aspect, the baseball season of 2023 will go down in history as the Year of Ohtani. Why? Owing to his â€œrecord-settingâ€ deal.

<h2 style="color: #252525;text-align: center">Largest contract in the MLB history: Shohei Ohtaniâ€™s contract in detail</h2>
On December 9, 2023, shortly after the conclusion of the MLB Winter Meetings, Shohei Ohtani concluded his initial venture into free agency by inking a 10-year, $700 million deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Although the â€œrichest in North American sports history," this deal had a catch: $68 million out of the $70 million annually are deferrals. This clearly means Ohtani is set to earn only $2 million a year from 2024 to 2033. The deferred payments, which is $68 million a year, will be distributed without interest from 2034 to 2043.

By the time Ohtani starts receiving his deferrals, a contract with the Dodgers will no longer bind him. According to experts, the two-way phenomenon is poised to potentially save between $90 and $100 million in state taxes, mainly because he is a resident outside of California after the conclusion of his â€œpretty interestingâ€ structured contract on paper.

<h2 style="color: #252525;text-align: center">A successful journey: All his achievements so far</h2>

<h2 style="color: #252525;text-align: center">Is he married? The truth behind his relationship with Kamalani Dung</h2>
â€œOhtani likes to keep his cards close to his chest." Didnâ€™t we already notice this most recently while he was adamant about keeping his free agency moves private? Surprisingly, this applies to not only his professional life but also his personal life. 
Ohtani, who is officially and publicly married to Mamiko Tanaka since the late February of this year, has been a victim of marriage rumors. Although not much is known about Ohtani's past relationships or the woman in his contact, Kamalani Dung, a Hawaiian woman who is said to be a professional softball player, was once strongly linked to the Japanese man.
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1585948" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Adobe_Express_20220513_2049360-1024x576-1.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="576" />
Having represented Puerto Rico in the sport as a right-handed pitcher, Dung is called a "YouTube Pitcher." As the name suggests, Kamalani acquired her softball throwing skills through YouTube videos and tutorials. Even after this, she managed to earn a gold medal at the 2018 Central American and Caribbean Games in Barranquilla, Colombia.
Incidentally, in the same year, the now-26-year-old posted a picture with Ohtani on her Instagram account. As soon as the post went viral, the baseball fandom was quick to conclude: â€˜Ohtani dating Dungâ€™. However, immediately after, Dung cleared the air, stating that she was just a massive fan of Shohei.

Shohei Ohtani

Shohei Ohtani: Net Worth 2024, MLB Career, Relationships, and More What is the net worth of Los Angeles Dodgers&#8217; star Shohei Ohtani? As described by the media and his sponsors, Shohei Ohtani is a once-in-a-lifetime talent who recently inked a history-breaking $700 million deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers. According to various sources, Shohei Ohtani&#8217;s net worth was approximately $50 million in 2023, prior to landing a deal with the Dodgers.Â  Dec 21, 2023; Inglewood, California, USA; Los Angeles Dodgers player Shohei Ohtani attends the game between the Los Angeles Rams and the New Orleans Saints at SoFi Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports While the specifics of the contract clauses are kept confidential, industry experts speculate that Ohtani stands to potentially earn approximately $105 million annually in 2024. This estimated sum combines his salary from the Dodgers and endorsement deals. With Ohtani being a generational talent, his parents deserve a special mention. Who are his parents? All you need to know about his life and family On July 5th, 1994, the baseball unicorn-to-be was born to Toru and Kayoko Ohtani in Oshu, Japan. For the unversed, Sho-time hails from a family of athletes. On the one hand, his father, Toru, earned a livelihood by working in a local automobile manufacturing plant in the same country, and he was an avid baseball player in the Japanese Industrial League. Recognizing young Shohei&#8217;s natural talent for the game, Toru understood the importance of wholeheartedly dedicating himself to coaching his son. On the other hand, Shoheiâ€™s mother was in a different league altogether. In her high school days, Kayoko actively played badminton, which led her school authorities to keep her reserved for the local games. In a brief span, her exceptional skills on the court propelled her to the national level. Nevertheless, she opted to retire from sports in her late twenties and prioritized her family. Ryuta Ohtani, the older brother of Shohei, initially pursued a career as an amateur baseball player and later transitioned into coaching for a corporate baseball team. Meanwhile, their sister, Yuka, engaged in volleyball during her teenage years before embarking on a career in the medical field. It is safe to say that sports run in the blood of the Ohtanis. A Star on the Diamond: A Look at Shohei Ohtaniâ€™s Baseball Career After being trained by his father, the now-best baseball player in the world&#8221;, he attended Hanamaki Higashi High School, pitching for the school team. At just 18, Ohtani showed his incredible pitching ability by tossing a near-100-mph fastball. Although he wished to join the major leagues right after high school, Ohtani joined the Japanese team Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters in 2013. It was here that Ohtani honed his skills as a hitter and a pitcher to become one of the hottest prospects in baseball. He recorded some of the best statistics of any Japanese player, ranging from strikeouts to home runs in the sport&#8217;s history.
