The day will come when one New York Yankees fan can turn to another and say: "Remember when we had Juan Soto and Aaron Judge? Those were the days."
How soon that day will come is up to the team.
As time winds down on Soto's final season before free agency, the pressure on the Yankees to keep him in the Bronx beyond 2024 is only growing stronger. Or louder, as exemplified by the "Please stay, Soto!" chants coming from Yankee Stadium's Bleacher Creatures as he roamed right field on Sunday.
Did Judge, who was stationed not far from Soto in center field, hear the chants?
