Yankees All-Star right fielder Aaron Judge reiterated to reporters on Friday that he not interested in discussing a contract extension during the season.
Judge, who will become a free agent for the first time in his career next winter, failed to come to an agreement with the Yankees during spring training, and is now open to exploring his options at season’s end.
Judge gave the Yankees a deadline of Opening Day for the two sides to reach a contract extension. The Yankees reportedly offered Judge a new contract that would have paid him more than $233 million. After turning down the rumored contract, Judge will head to free agency next winter.
