What should the Yankees do if Aaron Judge signs with the Giants? NickSelbe looks at the best fallback options for Judge’s top suitors
. Alas, only one will win the sweepstakes. But for the runner-ups, all is not lost. A whiff on Judge’s services will be tough to swallow, though opportunities to improve the big-league roster will still be available through other avenues. For the teams that appear to be pushing to land Judge the most, here are some worthwhile Plan B’s in the event that he signs elsewhere.Kodai Senga has been one of the best pitchers in the Nippon Professional Baseball league over the past decade. He had a 1.
If Judge opts to sign elsewhere, the Cubs would be better positioned to go above and beyond to sign Kodai Senga. The soon-to-be 30-year-old righthander is a potential staff ace, and iswho reps outfielder Seiya Suzuki, who signed with Chicago last offseason. Brandon Nimmo would also be a great backup plan to shore up the outfield, but starting pitching is a greater need in the short term.
While imagining Judge in a lineup with Freddie Freeman and Mookie Betts is tantalizing, the more prudent way to spend that money would probably be on a shortstop, be it re-signing Trea Turner or on any of the other “big four” available this offseason.
Instead, the Mets’ top priority should be starting pitching. Three of their five pitchers in their rotation last year—deGrom, Chris Bassit and Taijuan Walker—are currently free agents. Cohen is the wealthiest owner in baseball, and he certainly could use some of his spending money to re-sign deGrom, who is, according to Spotrac. But perhaps a better long-term move would be to bring in a younger Cy Young Award-caliber starter in Carlos Rodón.
