Aaron Judge Supports Juan Soto Contract Negotiations

New York Yankees captain Aaron Judge has publicly stated that he is unconcerned about Juan Soto potentially receiving a larger contract than his own $360 million deal, emphasizing that his priority is team success over individual salaries. Judge refuted rumors that his contract would hinder the Yankees' ability to sign top talent like Soto, who is a highly sought-after free agent after a stellar season. Soto's market value is projected to approach $600 million, and he has drawn interest from several teams, including the Yankees, who have already held discussions with him. Judge has not kept in touch with Soto since the World Series but believes in giving him space to make his decision. He praised Soto's contributions to the team and highlighted the importance of attracting top players for future success. The Yankees are expected to resume negotiations with Soto after Thanksgiving.
