Aaron Judge free agency: Agent says Yankees slugger could get $500 million

The Yankees’ bid for a 28th World Series title just ended, but that means the Aaron Judge free agency train is now kicking into high gear.

Just how much will the slugger sign for this winter? We know he’s outperformed the $213.5 million extension New York offered him in March. The new AL single-season home run record holder outperformed it so much that his next contract will likely start with a “3” at the beginning.

Could he challenge Mike Trout for the richest contract in baseball history, though? Judge will be entering his age-31 season in 2023, and Trout’s $426.
