Count Aaron Judge among those excited about National League MVP Giancarlo Stanton’s impending trade to the New York Yankees.

The American League Home run leader, who trailed only Stanton for the MLB lead in home runs last season, sent a “Step Brothers” shout-out on Twitter to his soon-to-be teammate Saturday afternoon.

Though Stanton has not responded and neither have not confirmed if their favorite dinosaur is, indeed the Velociraptor, the two young sluggers have the potential to build a lasting relationship in a dangerous lineup for baseball’s premier franchise.

As long as there’s no bad blood over who gets to hit cleanup.
