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).

That’s because Soto bolted from the Yankees to their crosstown rival this offseason, signing a historic 15-year, $765 million contract in the process. Depending, of course, on which New York fans you ask, the reaction was mixed. But the news created some shockwaves. But it came as no surprise to David Cone.
