I would like to understand what the story was on Judge when he was 20-24, from what I see his numbers were pretty mediocre, how do you go from being an at best above average minor leaguer to a superstar as a rookie at 25? That is a WTF for me to this point, but perhaps people have good explanations. It seems rather unprecedented but again perhaps not. Anyhow I agree with Kevin it's way too early to anoint him anything.
