Aaron Judge is the most wanted man in Major League Baseball right now. Reason? Well, the New York Yankees star has chosen the best time to play his best game. Currently, in the last year of his contract, Judge will soon be a free agent in the MLB market.

Although he has always been vocal about his love for the Pinstripes, he will not mind signing for a new MLB team. And why not? He is in the form of his life. If Judge gets better offers from other MLB sides, which he might get, this could be his last season for the Yankees.

Once the 2022 MLB season ends, it will be an open race to sign one of the best hitters of the game. Recently, former Yankee Alex Rodriguez also shared his views on the next destination for Aaron Judge. And he believes that the SF Giants and the New York Mets will try their best to sign the AL MVP frontrunner.

What’s next for Aaron Judge? The Mets, Giants, or Yankees?

It will always be a topic of discussion until Judge does not sign his new contract. Because he is a multi-skilled player. Apart from his batting capabilities, Judge is a great game leader. Had it not been for his leadership, the Yankees would not be at the top of AL, especially after a fiasco in the free agency this year.

“If you are Aaron Judge, you love the Yankees, you love the fanbase. It’s obvious,” A-Rod said on Kay-Rod Cast. “But here is a guy you had for nine years, and you have exclusive negotiation rights to him now. He is gonna be a free agent, that is a few months away.“

“And look, the Giants know what it means to have a one-player recipe with a Barry Bonds. They have a lot of payroll room there… And by the way, Steve Cohen’s got more money than God. He is always an option,” A-Rod added.

Irrespective of what everyone says, where do you think he will play next season?
