Hall of Fame shortstop and former captain of the New York Yankees Derek Jeter congratulated Aaron Judge on becoming the newest captain of the Yankees.

"Congrats @TheJudge44!!! Well deserved honor," Jeter tweeted.

Jeter tweeted a picture of himself with Judge, and former Yankees captain Willie Randolph.

Judge recently re-signed with the Yankees as a free agent, agreeing to terms on a nine-year, $360 million contract. Keeping the slugger home in New York has made the Yankees the favorite to win the American League pennant next year along with the Houston Astros. Both teams have plus-650 odds to win the World Series, according to the Fanduel.com website. 

They share the best odds with the New York Mets.
