New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge said that watching ex-teammate Juan Soto leave in free agency for the New York Mets last offseason "definitely stung," per comments to reporters Thursday (h/t Randy Miller of NJ Advance Media).

New York Mets slugger Juan Soto will return to his old stomping grounds for the first time on May 16, when his Mets squad heads to the Bronx to take on the New York Yankees for the first Subway Series showdown of the 2025 season.

The New York Mets superstar outfielder Juan Soto recently shared his bold statement on facing the Yankees fans boos and chants.

The New York Mets superstar has made a decision to whether he will represent the Dominican Republic in the 2026 World Baseball Classic.

The New York Yankees gave up a great deal to get Juan Soto in the Bronx, but his time with the team ended up being just one year. He revealed how free agency went down between the two sides.

The text message arrived on Aaron Judge’s phone from a random number this offseason. It claimed to be from Juan Soto, but Judge figured someone might be messing with him. Just in case, he shot Soto a message via social media asking if it was really him, and the newest Met confirmed that it was, so the two began texting.
