He missed two months in 2019 to an oblique strain.

In 2020, he missed some of spring training to another injury, and then hurt his calf two seperate times to hit the DL for another 2 stints and miss half of the season.

He’s made 4 of 5 all star teams. And has missed significant playing time to injuries in 3 out of these last 5.

I don’t see why we would expect a big guy like this to age well. That is not an insult to Judge, the Yankees, or his fans, before someone gets offended
Good reasoning, hope you are wrong, I like the guy.
