At first glance, Aaron Judge’s 2018 season doesn’t live up to his stellar 2017 campaign. His offensive numbers declined slightly across the board as he missed an extended period of time with a major wrist injury. However, Judge remained one of the most feared batters in all of baseball, became a better overall player by adding Gold Glove-caliber defense to his resume, and was the man behind several of the Yankees’ biggest hits of the 2018 season. That includes the playoffs, too. There’s no doubt that he was the most valuable player and the de facto captain on the Yankees.
