WATCH: Star Slugger Aaron Judge Left Speechless and Hilariously Deflects Questions About Future With the NY Yankees Organization

Will Aaron Judge extend his contract and stay with the New York Yankees? Well, everyone will get the correct answer after the completion of the ongoing MLB season. However, recently during the All-Star Game, Judge was clueless when a reporter asked him about his future contract. And since then, it has become a topic of debate.

Notably, Aaron Judge has become an integral part of the Yankees organization. Given his form from the plate, Judge has been their top performer over the years. Apart from that, the Yankees slugger has also emerged as the leader of the pack. And now, when he is in the last year of his contract, there are possibilities he might not continue with the Pinstripes.

Talking about his current season, Judge has been dominating the entire MLB since the start of the 2022 regular season. He chose to have his career-best season in the last year of his contract with the Yankees. And with this, he is in a pole position to decide his future.

Will Aaron Judge stay in the Bronx next season?

Not that the Yankees did not offer him a new contract during the 2022 free agency, but Judge rejected a long-term contract worth over $200 million. And the star slugger preferred to go into free agency and to listen to offers from multiple MLB franchises.

Recently, in a post- All-Star game interview, an ESPN reporter made Aaron Judge uncomfortable when she asked him whether he would sign the extension. Since Judge was on camera, he had no option but to dodge the question and change the topic.

He said that there are lots of great players in the current team.

“We got a lot of great Yankees on this team. You know there is a lot of great Yankees here for a long time, so don’t be upset. Hope, you will be a Judge fan for life,” Judge responded.

Judge to win the AL MVP?

Aaron Judge has already hit 33 home runs in the ongoing MLB season. And it is only the first half. The Yankees slugger also has 70 RBIs in his name in the 2022 season. Considering his current form, Judge is the favorite candidate to win the American League MVP.

But he will need to carry on his excellent form. Else, in the name of Shohei Ohtani, Judge has an enormous threat for the prestigious award. Because being a two-way player, it is a lot easier for Ohtani to win the AL MVP, compared to every other MLB player.
