Aaron Judge is the most coveted free agent in baseball, and Tom Brady knows it. MLBTR’s projection is an eight-year, $332MM deal for Judge, which works out to a $41.5MM AAV. The latest rumor is the Yankees offer is 8 years and 300 million. So when Aaron Judge showed up at the Bucs game last night wearing a Mike Evans jersey, Tom made his pitch.
That's really what he said? I saw this video last night but I didn't know what they said. “Do you wanna play tight end for us tonight?” Tom kept it light. If anyone knows what it's like to be a high profile player switching to a new city, it's Brady. So is he trying to coax Aaron Judge to Tampa? Not likely. Judge lives in Tampa during the offseason and spring training. Probably not too far from the stadium. And I don't care who you are, if you get a chance to meet Tom Brady and watch from the sidelines, you do it. His wife, Samantha Bracksieck, joined him.
So where is Aaron Judge going to end up?
Probably stay with the Yankees, but other teams are gonna make their pitch. Or he could play Tight End with the Bucs.
