Hal Steinbrenner sounds prepared to do what it takes to keep Aaron Judge a Yankee.The Yankees’ managing general partner said Tuesday he told Judge he wants him to stay in The Bronx and indicated money won’t prevent that from happening — at least to a point.
“We know where we’re at,” Steinbrenner said of the team’s payroll. “I can tell you, that’s not gonna stop us.”
Steinbrenner added in the conversations he’s had with Judge — including a single, face-to-face talk between the two — since the season ended, that he’s made it clear he wants to keep Judge a Yankee.
Speaking at the owners’ meetings at MLB headquarters in midtown, Steinbrenner said he made sure Judge knew the team has “the ability… to make this happen and still have money to make other things happen, too.”
