Aaron Judge expressed indifference regarding potential free agent Juan Soto receiving a larger contract than his own nine-year, $360 million deal with the New York Yankees. Judge, who recently won his second AL MVP award, emphasized the importance of acquiring top talent for the team.
Soto had a strong first season with the Yankees, batting .288 with 41 homers, and is currently exploring free agency options. Judge noted the significance of giving Soto space during this decision-making period.
Both players had a record-setting season together, and Judge highlighted the value of communication within the team, particularly with owner Hal Steinbrenner. He reflected on the importance of teamwork in achieving individual accolades.
