During the spring season this year, the Yankees did offer a contract to Judge of $213.5 million for 7 years. Which Judge refused. With the tremendous season he had this year, he has proved that he deserves way more than what he got offered.
Throughout the fourth game of the ALCS, Judge has always been a team person who has focused on wins rather than his personal records. Over time he has proved how loyal he is to the Yankees and has been hinting to fans that he might stay as a Yankee after all. But the man lives by a mantra that keeps his team spirit alive that he got from his college’s baseball coach.
