Aaron Judge puts the MLB on notice as he claims the Yankees are ready to pursue the World Series title.
“It’s still kind of the same thing. You know, we got a goal here when we play in New York, you know, it’s about winning a championship,” Judge said. “And we came close last year, got a chance to go to the dance, didn’t finish the job. But now everybody in this room is motivated to get back there and rewrite the script.”
Yankees’ Aaron Judge looks to acclimate new teammates.
As the Yankees added new stars such as Paul Goldschimdt, Max Fried, and others, Judge looks to get them acclimated since he’s the captain of the team. Former New York player Chris Young was part of the MLB Network team interviewing Judge and when he asked the 32-year-old about any methods to get to know them better, the two-time AL MVP actually credited him in showing him “the way.”
“You kind of led by example when you were here, I was just a young guy trying to make my way and just even inviting me over to sit down and eat, you know, just kind of getting to know me, like little things like that go a long way,” Judge said. “So for me, it’s just about trying to get to know the guys first. What do they think about? What’s their family life? What’s their situation with that? Just try to get to know them on a personal level, because then once I can get that personal level, we can kind of get into more of the good stuff. But you showed me the way years ago man.”
At any rate, the Yankees have true championship aspirations as they look to get back and win the franchise’s 28th World Series title.
