Aaron Judge, proud owner of a new MVP trophy, also has an offer from the Yankees to stare at.
Brian Cashman acknowledged for the first time Thursday night that the club has extended another contract proposal to its freshly minted Most Valuable Player — the first publicly known offer since spring training.
Judge rejected a seven-year, $213.5 million offer from the club before the season began, a deadline the star outfielder imposed. Judge proceeded to enjoy a monster year in which he set the club and AL record for home runs , which culminated with the MVP honor shortly before Cashman spoke. Cashman, who publicly released the terms of the spring training offer Judge declined, did not reveal the specifics of the more recent proposal or when it was proposed.
Cashman cautioned that he does not know about Judge’s market. He said he has “no idea” about the other offers Judge is looking at or what elements in a contract are most important to Judge.“They know where the New York Yankees stand,” said Cashman, who still is operating without a new contract but said his own deal “will work itself out over time.”
