Aaron Judge hit three home runs in a game, but his prominence was overshadowed by Juan Soto's unexpected move from the Yankees to the Mets. Soto signed a record-breaking 15-year, $765 million deal, marking the first time a high-profile player left the Yankees for the Mets while still in their prime. This shift altered discussions around the Yankees as they focused on replacing Soto, which inadvertently minimized Judge's ongoing contributions and presence within the team narrative, despite being a two-time MVP and a significant player.
Soto became the first high-profile player to leave the Yankees for the Mets in his prime, departing from a defending AL champion for a record deal.
While the Yankees focused on replacing Soto, Aaron Judge, a two-time MVP, unintentionally became sidelined in conversations surrounding the team.
