One day after Aaron Judge expressed his desire to discuss a contract extension prior to Opening Day, Hal Steinbrenner made it clear that the Yankees plan to do exactly that.
Steinbrenner said Wednesday that while finishing out the roster for 2022 remains the priority during this shortened Spring Training, the talks with Judge’s representatives will “happen soon.”
“Judge is a very special player right, and a great Yankee,” said Steinbrenner, the team’s managing general partner.
