New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge re-signed with the team in a new contract worth $360 million over 9 years, The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal reported in a tweet.
Judge, who broke the American League home-run record this year, became a free agent after the season ended.
His historic year clearly boosted his value on the market. Judge had rejected a seven-year, $213.5 million contract extension from the Yankees before the start of the 2022 season.
The 30-year old has been the face of the franchise since 2017, and his home-run chase solidified his place as a fan favorite.

Please this is a frum site. We don’t need news on a menuval playing ball
Where do you sign up to join the Yankees?
Ok. Now I can go to first Seder.
Such important news for a frum website.
I think this will be a date that will live in infamy
When asked whether $360 Million was a good contract deal, the Yankees star told reporters, “I can’t be the Judge on that one, I’m a nogeah be’davar!”
When a reporter insisted that he didn’t deserve a $360 million contract,” the Yankees slugger told him, “Judging from what you just told me, I assess you to be a judgemental fellow, am I correct?!”
“I can’t answer that question,” the reporter replied, “I’m a nogeah be’davar; YOU be the Judge.”
$360 million dollars to hit a baseball with a wooden bat? The world has gone insane. I guess, keeping the goyim busy (and paying) with these sports players and teams, they are distracted from concentrating on us – the Yidden. That is always a good thing. When the goyim, throughout galus, are distracted, we Yidden are left alone to do our avodas Hashem with menuchas hanefesh. Let’s chop arain.
From the Degel Hatorah website???
Terrific! Pls keep all the great money and sports stories coming! It’s so important that I read them here from Daas Torah perspective, as otherwise I’m left to glean whatever perspective the secular sites offer.
It really is inappropriate for a frum website to write this story. it is total goyish news. Our rosh Yeshiva said in Long Beach that sports and following it is Avi Avos hatumah. How can a Torah website report on this. it is trivial at best.
Even though politicians may be menuvalim but it’s reported on because it effects the velt we live in why is reporting on this goy nogeya to the life of a frum person.
Don’t be quick to judge Judge and other readers of this site.
