`
`November 13, 2017
`
`Yankees RP Aaron Judge has signed a multiyear deal to be a "national
`
`spokesperson for Pepsi," according to Darren Rovell of ESPN.com.
`
`Terms of the deal "were not disclosed." Pepsi Sports Marketing Dir
`
`Justin Taman said of Judge, "Whether you area Yankee fan or not, you
`
`have to watch him. How he handles himself makes him a great
`
`ambassador for our brand and company on and off the field." Taman
`
`said that their relationship with Judge will "manifest itsetf in alt forms of
`
`media with the focus being on Opening Day next year" During the year,
`
`Judge specifically told his agent Page Odle to "collect all the
`
`endorsement possibilities for season's end." He previously had deals
`
`with Under Armour and Rawlings, and the "only in-season cleat he did
`
`was after the All-Star break when he signed an exclusive autograph
`
`cleat with Fanatics," Now the "floodgates wilt oven," Last week, Judge

`
`November 7, 2017
`
`Sony yesterday announced Yankees RF Aaron Judge will be the cover
`
`athlete for Sony's "MLB: The Show 18" after "teasing the announcement
`
`throughout the day," according to Chris Cwik of YAHOO SPORTS_ The
`
`news "shouldn't come as a major surprise." Sony's teaser "contained
`
`the phrase 'The Future is Coming.'" Judge is an "obvious choice as the
`
`cover athlete." He is "young, excellent and he plays for arguably the
`
`game's most popular team" It would, perhaps, be "more fitting" to have
`
`Astros 2B Jose Altuve or SS Carlos Correa on the cover, but "keep in
`
`mind these negotiations likely happen weeks before the news comes

`Astros 2B Jose Altuve or SS Carlos Correa on the cover, but "keep in

`
`and Baseball HOFer Ken Griffey Jr. as "athletes who have been The
`
`Show's cover athlete in recent years" (SPORTS.YAHOO.com 11/6). In
`
`California, Bryant-Jon Anteola notes the cover is a "seriously looking
`
`Judge wearing his pinstripe Yankees uniform and looking ready to
`
`crush another baseball" Judge is the "'first Yankees player to make the
`
`cover of The Show" (FRESNO BEE 11.0).

`
`Yankees rookie Aaron Judge (https:/www.baseball-

`slumping at the plate but it hasn't stopped him from signing an exclusive

`
`Since the Yankees returned from the All-Star break on July 14, Aaron Judge has seen his batting
`average drop 30 points to .289.

`Prior to Sunday night's backbreaking loss to the Red Sox, Judge was batting .161 with 43
`strikeouts in his last 27 contests. To make matters worse, 17 of those Ks have been of the caught
`looking variety.
`
`One night later against New York's team, the Mets (I'm kidding), Judge found the seats in the sixth
`inning of the Yanks' eventual 4-2 win. Of course, he did strike out two more times but why bother
`focusing on the negative.
`
`Even still, Judge's 36 dingers lead the entire American League, which is one reason as to why the
`baby-faced 25-year-old just inked a multi-year agreement with Fanatics Authentic
`(https:/www.foxbusiness.cornimarkets/2017/08/14/yankees-aaron-judge-inks-autograph-
`deal-with-fanatics.html) to become the sole distributor of all Aaron Judge signed memorabilia
`and collectibles.
`
`Though financial terms of the deal weren't disclosed, online sports retailer Fanatics joins Rawlings
`and Under Armor on Judge's growing list of endorsement deals.
`
`Other notable athletes who have signed with Fanatics within past few months include NL Rookie
`of the Year favorite Cody Bellinger (https:/www.baseball-

`New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge signs autograph deal with Fanatics
`
`After a heavy courtship by memorabilia companies, New York Yankees slugger
`
`Aaron Judge has signed an exclusive autograph deal with Fanatics.
`
`Terms were not disclosed, but Judge's agent, David Matranga, said that it was a
`
`long-term deal.
`
`"We've been really selective on what deals we wanted to do, but after the All-
`
`Star break it seemed the right time to do this one," said Judge, whose only other
`
`endorsements are with Rawlings and Under Armour.

`
`Yankees slugger Aaron Judge has signed an exclusive autograph deal with Fanatics. Fanatics
`
`During the first week of July, one of Judge's signed rookie cards sold for
`
`$14,655 on eBay. Two weeks ago, the jersey that Judge wore for his MLB debut
`
`was sold by Steiner Sports for a sum of $160,644. Judge hit his first home run
`
`in his debut.
`
`On its website, Fanatics is selling 8-by-lo-inch photos with Judge's signature
`
`for $350. A signed Yankees hat is $400, a signed batting helmet is $500, a
`
`signed bat is $600 and a signed replica jersey is $650.
`
`"As a kid growing up in California, I collected autographs," Judge said at a
`
`Fanatics private signing on Sunday. "I got [Giants shortstop] Rich Aurilia and
`
`Barry Bonds and actually got Willie Mays a couple times."
`
`Judge, who won the All-Star Home Run Derby said that growing up, he used to
`
`perfect his signature in classroom notebooks while in school, dreaming of the

`day he would someday sign.
`
`While Judge hasn't said anything publicly, sources said he was not happy with
`
`the way his game-used jerseys were put up for bid without his having any
`
`knowledge of it. The jersey Judge wore on Mother's Day, which was also Derek
`
`Jeter's number retirement, is to be auctioned off next week by Heritage
`
`Auctions. Steiner has the right to get some of Judge's jerseys through its
`
`memorabilia deal with the Yankees.
`
`Judge's batting gloves, bats and shoes are his property, but his jerseys are
`
`property of the team. The deal with Fanatics doesn't include rights to his game-
`
`used memorabilia.
`
`Since the All-Star break, Judge has hit .164 and struck in 3o consecutive games.
`
`He ranks second in Major League Baseball in home runs (35), seven behind the
`
`Miami Marlins' Giancarlo Stanton.

`
`SAN FRANCISCO -- The San Francisco Giants have narrowed their search for a
`
`new manager to three finalists, according to multiple reports.
`
`Former Phillies manager Gape Kapler, Astros bench coach Joe Espada and Rays
`
`bench coach Matt Quatraro are the final three vying to replace Bruce Bochy.

`New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge signs autograph deal with Fanatics
`
`Giants President of Baseball Operations Farhan Zaidi is taking his time making
`
`the hire. He has known since February that Bochy would retire.
`
`Others who had been considered were Dodgers bench coach Bob Geren, Giants
`
`coaches Ron Wotus and Hensley Meulens, and Athletics coach Mark Kotsay.
`
`The 44-year-old Kapler was fired Oct. 10 after two seasons in Philadelphia and a
`
`161-163 record. With Bryce Harper their blockbuster acquisition, the Phillies
`
`finished 81-81 for their first non-losing season since 2012.
`
`Last week, Espada's Astros lost Game 7 of the World Series to the Washington
`
`Nationals. Quatraro and the Rays beat Oakland in the AL wild card game before
`
`losing in a five-game division series to Houston.
`
`Bochy managed the Giants to World Series championships in 2010, '12 and '14.
`
`San Francisco went 77-85 in his final year. The club could look quite different
`
`heading into 2020 with lefty ace and 2014 World Series MVP Madison
`
`Bumgarner among baseball's top free agents.

`
`Exclusive: Yankees Superstar and AL
`Rookie of the Year Aaron Judge Joins
`Adidas
`
`QUICKLY
`
`Aaron Judge is the newest prominent young baseball player to join Adidas.
`
`By SI.COM STAFF March 27, 2018
`
`In March 2017, Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge was a minor league player
`
`trying to crack the big league ballclub. In March 2018, Judge is the
`
`defending Rookie of the Year, the defending Home Run Derby champion
`
`and, as of today, the newest member of Adidas. Oh how much can change
`
`in just one year.
`
`"Did I think I'd sign this kind of deal this early in my career? To be honest
`
`no," Judge said. "But I'm really excited for this opportunity to join Adidas
`
`and work with them,"

`
`Exclusive: Aaron Judge signs deal with Adidas I Sl.com
`
`"Never in my dreams would I have envisioned that I'd be signing an
`
`endorsement deal at all."
`
`Judge is the latest young baseball star to sign with Adidas, which recently
`
`inked Chicago Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant and Houston Astros
`
`shortstop Carlos Correa. In an era where athletes are morphing into
`
`industry symbols and influencers, Judge felt Adidas was the company to
`
`not only amplify his profile, but allow him to explore cross-platform
`
`options and ascend to something more than a baseball player.
`
`zt
`
`"The coolest part is that they're not all about sports, and that was so clear
`
`in one of my first meetings with them," Judge says. "They're about lifestyle
`
`and showing who I was and who I am as a person. It's what made the
`
`choice easy."
`
`Signing Judge was a no-brainer for Adidas. By landing the 25-year-old
`
`Yankees star, Adidas now has one of the most marketable young players in

`the game, and one who finished 2017 with 52 home runs in his first full
`
`Major League season. Pair him with Correa and Bryant and Adidas has now
`
`inked three Rookies of the Year since 2015 and three of the game's most
`
`promising young talents. Due to his physical stature at 6' 7" and symbolic
`
`stature in New York City, Judge may be the most significant client Adidas
`
`has signed this year.
