Way back during Yankees spring training, two young outfield prospects caught everybody’s eye; Aaron Judge and Slade Heathcott. These two players are leading a resurgence in the Yankee farm system. Aaron Judge has remained one of the Yankees top prospects, while Slade Heathcott is making the most out of his last opportunity.
Aaron Judge is the size of an NFL lineman, but instead of playing football, he is crushing baseball’s in Double-A for the Yankees minor league affiliate, Trenton Thunder. This year Judge is batting .314, with six homers, and 21 RBIs. Just this past weekend he saw a 14-game hitting streak come to an end.
