Yankees’ Aaron Judge offer leaks ahead of Opening Day contract deadline

Aaron Judge(ment) Day is here. Will the Yankees and their star slugger come to a deal before Gerrit Cole throws the first pitch on Opening Day?

If they don’t come to an agreement before the deadline that may not actually be a deadline, it looks like the front office is getting out ahead of the story. The Yankees have made an offer to Judge that would make him the highest-paid position player in franchise history by annual value, according to The New York Post.

The Yankees have bid more than $27.
