How Yankees Re-Signing Anthony Rizzo Could Impact Aaron Judge’s Decision

With Anthony Rizzo agreeing to a new deal to stay with the Yankees, New York sees the value in having the first baseman remain in a Pinstripes uniform.

After a 2022 season in which the veteran bounced back to hit 32 home runs, Rizzo agreed to a two-year, $40-million deal, according to The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal. It reportedly includes a club option for the third year worth $17 million with a $6 million buyout.

However, the three-time All-Star also brought a great sense of leadership to New York’s clubhouse.
