Like Judge in 2022, the four-time All-Star baseman is a year away from free agency and sure to get an extension offer from the club at some point, meaning he'll have to weigh a similar same-risk reward equation. He may also want to wait for Soto to further drive up prices for generational talents, and the outfielder's next contract may be relevant given their ages and some of the statistical similarities through their first five-plus big-league years. -Davidi
