I agree. Heck, Judge was either rookie and/or player of the month in April, May, June, and September. You can't be switched on all of the time. Posted a graphic earlier in this thread that shows even MVP-caliber seasons include slumps.
No one on that team is holding Judge responsible for them having to play in a wild card game. By all accounts he's loved by his teammates.
