The New York Yankees are 10-3 to start the year, and they’ve barely needed team captain and former MVP Aaron Judge!
No, seriously. Amid the Bronx Bombers’ hot start, Aaron Judge has been a near non-factor. The big slugger is batting just .178 on the year with a pair of homers and six RBI. New teammate Juan Soto, meanwhile, is thriving in Judge’s former No. 2 spot in the lineup, batting .360 with a 1.008 OPS, two home runs and 12 RBI. His on-base percentage (OBP) is an astounding .468.
And in fairness to Judge, he’s still an on-base machine!
