San Francisco Giants Might Snag Aaron Judge From New York Yankees; Latest Report Suggests

Aaron Judge and the rumors around his new contract will never end until he does not sign. Notably, the New York Yankees talisman rejected a long-term deal, earlier in the free agency this year.

The Yankees failed to re-sign their most important player on the team. Now, Judge will head to his free agency after the 2022 season. And then it will be more difficult for the Pinstripes to keep their star. Because once he becomes a free agent, Judge will be open to listening to offers from every MLB franchise.

The Yankees are well aware of the value of Aaron Judge. Apart from his skills and talent, Judge leads the team very well. A recent report suggests that not the Yankees, but a rival team is the new favorite sign Aaron Judge.

Is this the last season of Aaron Judge for the Yankees?

Well, if the Yankees fail to extend Judge’s stay in the Bronx, it will be a heartbreak for the Yankees fans. Because he has become the heart and soul of the Pinstripes. Per a report from Bleacher Report, the Yankees’ inability to extend Aaron Judge for a long-term contract might have given an edge to the San Francisco Giants.

According to MLB insider Jon Heyman, the National League East team has emerged as the new favorite for Aaron Judge. Because while growing up, Judge used to cheer for the Giants. So, if he ends up signing for his childhood favorite team, it should not be a surprise.

Not to forget that Judge turned down a seven-year contract worth a whopping $213.5 million from his current team during the free agency. Because the Yankees slugger wanted a better contract.

It is also true that Judge will not negotiate any deal during the regular season, as he does not want to shift his focus from the games. He said this during the free agency earlier this year.

Now, it is up to Judge whether he wants to continue with the Yankees in the coming years. And given his current form, any MLB side would want to play him by their side. Only time will tell which team he will play for in the future.
