Sources say one or two Yankees bigs were slightly to somewhat annoyed that captain/three-time MVP Aaron Judge suggested the $320M Yankees could spend more after they were swept by the Rays in the division series.
Yankees higher-ups will get over it because Judge has a great rapport with them. But they were said to be taken aback.
“We’re the Yankees. I feel we should go all in and do what they need to do,” said Judge, who had to miss the postseason due to his calf strain. “If we got holes, if it’s finding certain players or personnel, whatever we need, you got to go out there and get it. That’s why I signed back here, to play with the Yankees, is to fight for a championship and go all in.”
Then, asked if he feels the Yankees should go “all in” Judge said, “It’s tough to say. I want to trade for everybody, sign everybody every single year, but I know that’s not realistic. They give us a winning team every single year, but that’s not good enough here in New York. You got to go out there and go all in every year. I’m excited to see what they do.”
