The New York Mets are locked in on the pursuit of New York Yankees superstar Juan Soto. The New York Yankees are in danger of losing the star, and one former Mets pitcher thinks Aaron Judge is to blame.

Aaron Judge said he hasn’t spoken to Juan Soto since the New York Yankees lost in the World Series in late October, but he’s come up in conversation with owner Hal Steinbrenner. “He knows how we feel about him,” Judge said.

The New York Yankees and New York Mets both want to sign outfielder Juan Soto. If neither lands him, both teams could focus on Anthony Santander as Plan B.
