New York Yankees captain Aaron Judge did not speak with Juan Soto this offseason because he didn't have Soto's new phone number, according to USA Today's Bob Nightengale.

Soto, who signed a record-setting contract with the New York Mets in free agency, said on Thursday that he hadn't spoken to any of his former teammates since Game 5 of the World Series.

Nightengale reported that Soto had changed his number during free agency, and is now "reaching out to former Yankee teammates."

Getting Soto's contact information this winter reportedly wasn't a problem for Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo.
