Alright, let’s talk about Aaron Judge’s salary. I got curious about this the other day, just wondering what kind of money a player like that pulls in, especially after all the contract talk a while back.
So, first thing I did was just hop on my computer. Opened up a search engine, nothing fancy. I typed in something simple, probably like “aaron judge salary” or “how much does aaron judge make”. Pretty standard stuff.
The results came back pretty quick. Lots of articles and sports sites popped up. The main thing everyone seemed to agree on was that huge contract he signed with the New York Yankees. A really big number.
Most sources were pointing to a 9-year deal worth $360 million. That was the headline figure, the one that makes you go “wow”.
Breaking it Down
But you know, those big numbers are usually the total value. I wanted to see how it broke down, like, per year. So I clicked around a bit more, looking for details on the contract structure.
Found some sites that listed the annual salary. It averages out to about $40 million per year. That’s the average, sometimes the actual payout year-to-year in these long deals can vary a bit, maybe signing bonuses factored in differently, but $40 million a year gives you a good idea.
It’s pretty wild thinking about that kind of money just for playing baseball, but hey, he’s one of the top guys, and that’s the market these days, I guess. Seeing the actual numbers laid out was interesting. It wasn’t hard to find, really, just took a few minutes of searching online to get the main figures.
So yeah, that was my quick look into Aaron Judge’s salary situation. Found the big contract number, found the average per year. Pretty straightforward process this time around.
