There was no way the Cubs or the White Sox were going to wade into the bidding war for Aaron Judge. There was a better chance of the federal tax code adding a section for jokes.
I don’t want to get into a debate about whether Judge is worth the $360 million the Yankees spent to keep him. The market says he is, so he is. Nor do I want to argue whether the slugger was right for either franchise at this point in their respective journeys.
