Through April 26th, Aaron Judge had just four homers to his name while slashing .178/.317/.356.
Hell, there was one guy on Twitter asking to demote him to the minor leagues.
Then the monster became unleashed.
Since April 27, he’s batting .380 with a .507 OBP while slugging a fucking ridiculous .829.
In that 98 game span he’s blasted 43 homers and driven in 104.
All while being walked 83 times.
It’s a run that really only peak Barry Bonds could match.
He’s actually unbelievable to watch.
I was there last night to see those two homers.
It’s a privilege to watch him play this game.
This stat posted on reddit actually blew my mind.
Of course Judge leads baseball in virtually every hitting category, besides batting average.
Bobby Whitt Jr. is fucking awesome.
100 means you’re league average.
115 means you’re 15% better than the league average hitter.
Judge is at 226.
There’s three guys ahead of him ever when it comes to the best OPS+ for a season.
Keep in mind he’s doing this all in a year where offense is down across the league.
I could go on and on when it comes to Judge’s greatness.
Hopefully they never get a clue.
It’s all people come back with when people gloat about his numbers.
It’s all they have and I want to take that from them more than anything.
