Aaron Judge shared his thoughts on the New York Yankees recent acquisition of star Juan Soto from the San Diego Padres

The New York Yankees were one of the busiest teams at the MLB Winter Meetings, and their lineup will look a lot different with Juan Soto and Alex Verdugo joining the fray.

Soto is not the only left-handed hitting outfielder the Yankees acquired at the Winter Meetings. The Yankees also sent three pitching prospects to the AL East rival Boston Red Sox for Alex Verdugo earlier in the week. There was some thought Verdugo could be flipped to the Padres in a Soto trade, but that did not happen. He remains with the Yankees.

Stephen J. Nesbitt: The last left-handed (or switch) hitters with a .400 OBP across a full season for the Yankees are Jorge Posada, Jason Giambi and Bobby Abreu. It’s been 16 years since any of them last did it.

The trade sending Soto to the Yankees is "close to being finalized," Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports. Morosi says it will be Michael King, Drew Thorpe and at least two additional players shipped to the Padres.
