Judge, Yankees Settle on 2022 Contract, Avoid Arbitration, per Report

Aaron Judge and the Yankees have finally agreed to a 2022 contract, per the New York Post’s Jon Heyman.

After months of trying to reach a deal to avoid arbitration, the Yankees and Judge reportedly agreed to a $19 million plus incentives, MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand reports. The incentives include an additional $250,000 if Judge earns the league MVP and another $250,000 if he earns World Series MVP.

Originally, the Yankees and Judge were scheduled to an arbitration case on Friday, but the two parties avoided that by reaching an agreement.
