New York Yankees: Is Aaron Judge worth a massive contract extension?

Error 0:

The New York Yankees of already carved a section of their stadium out for slugger Aaron Judge. Judge was drafted by the Oakland Athletics in the 31st round of the 2010 MLB June amateur draft but was then selected by the Yankees in the first round of the 2013 amateur Draft.

As it stands, the Athletics missed out on what looks like a generational talent at 6-foot-7 and 282 pounds. At 28 years old, Judge is quickly achieving veteran status in the MLB, despite only reaching the majors in 2016. In his first full season of play, Judge earned the runner-up accolade for MVP and was rookie of the year.
