[I]“…While ZiPS still wouldn’t offer him $250 million, it’s a lot closer, and we’re now talking a $70 million single-season jump in valuation. It also puts the Yankees in an interesting negotiating position. If they thought that Judge was worthy of $213.5 million from 2023-29 before the season, it’s going to be quite difficult to say that they shouldn’t offer him significantly more after turning in an MVP-type season that’s every bit as stunning as his 2017 campaign. In this case, Judge may very well get the contract he wants.”

“By turning down a fair offer entering the season, Aaron Judge made an enormous wager on himself, bigger than any ever seen at the World Series of Poker. So far this season, he’s done as much as he possibly could to ensure that come 2023, he’ll be the one raking in the chips.”[/I]
