Everyone around Aaron Judge has been marveling at what he’s doing this season — everyone but Judge himself.
Aaron Judge signs autographs for fans before the Yankees’ 4-1 loss to the Brewers.However he is doing it, it’s working. He has been asked to played center field, a clear team weakness, and he has done it magnificently. He has been asked to bat leadoff, and he has become the largest leadoff hitter in big league history, and also one of the best, and he has done it without counsel or question. He has been asked to play every day, of course.
It helps that Giancarlo Stanton is back and well enough to hit, but Judge has proven he can do it alone if he has to. He’s putting together one of the greatest individual seasons ever, and at times he has been doing it without real protection. None of the other Yankees is having a career year, and almost all of them have been ailing lately. That’s a big part of the clubhouse chatter.
When Donaldson won his MVP with Toronto, he was in a lineup in which Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion hit 40 and 39 homers, respectively. Meanwhile, Judge has been naked in the Yankees lineup at times this season. The other productive Yankees stars all have been out at one time or another, and recently they were almost all out at the same time.
