Aaron Judge’s net worth in 2022 is estimated to be at $10 million. This is agreed upon by multiple sources such as Celebrity Net Worth.

Aaron James Judge was born on April 26, 1992. The day after he was born, he was adopted by Patty and Wayne Judge, teachers that worked in Linden, California. By the time he was around 10 to 11 years old, Patty and Wayne told him that he was adopted. He also has an older brother, John, who was also adopted.

“I was about 10 or 11 and we really didn’t look alike, so I started asking questions and they told me I was adopted and answered all my questions, and that was that. I was fine with it. It really didn’t bother me because that’s the only parents I’ve known.’’ Aaron said.

During his high school years at Linden High School, he played three sports: a pitcher and first baseman for the baseball team, wide receiver for the football team, and center for the basketball team. He set a school record for touchdowns with 17, and he also led the basketball team in scoring with 18.2 points per game. For baseball, he was part of the team that made the California Interscholastic Federation Division III Playoffs.

Aaron Judge was recruited to play tight end by multiple colleges such as Notre Dame, Stanford, and UCLA. However, he preferred baseball and he was drafted by the Oakland Athletics in the 31st round of the 2010 MLB Draft. Despite that, he decided to attend California State University, Fresno (Fresno State) to join the Fresno State Bulldogs baseball team.

In 2011, he was part of the team that shared the Western Athletic Conference (WAC) regular-season title, they also won the WAC Tournament and qualified for the 2011 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament. In his junior year, Judge led the Bulldogs in home runs, doubles, and runs batted in. He was also named to the all-conference team in all of his three seasons at Fresno State.

In the 2013 MLB Draft, the New York Yankees selected Aaron Judge with the 32nd overall pick. He then signed a $1.8 million deal with the Yankees. Unfortunately, he tore his quadriceps femoris muscle during a base running drill and he was ruled out for the rest of the 2013 season.

Aaron Judge made his professional debut with the Charleston RiverDogs of the Class A South Atlantic League during the 2014 season. He was then promoted to the Tampa Yankees of the Class A-Advanced Florida State League.

In 2015, he was invited to join the Yankees’ spring training as a non-roster player. He started the season with the Trenton Thunder of the Class AA Eastern League. He was eventually promoted to the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders of the Class AAA International League.

On August 23, 2016, Judge made his MLB debut when the Yankees faced the Tampa Bay Rays. In his first MLB at-bat, he hit his first home run.

Unfortunately, his debut season ended early as he was placed on the 15-day disabled list after suffering a grade two oblique strain during their game against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

In 2017, his full rookie season, Aaron Judge broke multiple records. He broke Joe DiMaggio’s record for most home runs by a Yankees rookie with 30, making him the second rookie to get 30 home runs before the All-Star break (the first being Mark McGwire in 1987). He hit .329 and had 30 home runs and 66 RBIs before the break.

Aaron Judge finished the 2017 season with a batting average of .284 and 114 RBIs. He also led the American League in home runs with 52, runs scored with 128, and walks with 127. He was given the Silver Slugger Award and was named the unanimous AL Rookie of the Year at the end of the season. He was also second in voting for the 2017 AL MVP.
