The Yankees and Red Sox begin the 2022 season with big questions about the futures of some of their biggest stars.
The Yankees realize what Judge, a three-time All-Star outfielder, means to the organization, and haven’t tried to hide how badly they want him to remain in a Yankee uniform the rest of his career.
Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo was in a similar situation a year ago with the Chicago Cubs when he was eligible for free agency at the season’s conclusion. The two sides never came close to reaching an agreement, and Rizzo was traded to the Yankees at the trade deadline. While Judge will naturally be disappointed if an extension isn’t completed, just like Bogaerts, but Yankees manager Aaron Boone is convinced it won’t have any effect on him. Judge hit .406 this spring with four homers and a 1.347 OPS in 11 games.
Bogaerts’ situation is different than Judge. He could simply stay put with three years and $60 million remaining on his original six-year, $120 million contract extension. “We want Bogey to be here for a long time,’’ Red Sox GM Chaim Bloom told reporters in spring training. “We’d love to have both of them here for a long time.’’
