Yankees general manager Brian Cashman, who just was re-signed to a four-year contract on Monday, told reporters at Monday’s MLB winter meetings that the team continues to have discussions with Aaron Judge in order to bring him back next season.
For example, Cashman said owner Hal Steinbrenner met with Judge in Tampa, Fla., recently to discuss the slugger’s future in New York. Cashman said the owner is “putting his money where his mouth is.”
“We’d love to have our player back,” Cashman said, via ESPN. “We would love to continue to call him our player every step of the way as he follows what looks like—as long as nothing happens—a career path that will lead him to Cooperstown. I would like him to be in pinstripes every step of the way.”
