I also hope he is able to achieve this. Would be great for baseball, and for those who spent big bucks on some of his cards.

Judge is on fire!!! 2 for 2 with HR #46 tonight.

so are the contingents taking turns depending on whether judge is hot or not? when he was cold the other side was counting down his ba to the mendoza line with daily updates...now that he's getting hot again it's all silence on that side and the pro-judge crowd is chirping!

just remember baseball seasons are long, there are bound to be ups and downs and small sample size. no point following the numbers with a microscope.

It is near the end of the season and he has a really good chance of tying or breaking the all time rookie home run record. I believe that is worth daily updates.

For me it is just fun to watch because I do not own a single Aaron Judge item.

Yes ups and downs are the norm but his ups and downs have been on the extreme side I think, thus the unusual interest. Particularly in a 25 year old rookie who had a relatively unspectacular minor league career.

2 more today!!! Judge only needs 1 more to tie the rookie HR record. With 7 more games he has a great chance to break the record.

Not sure where people think I fall on this spectrum, but I think the power is obviously for real and that he will be an occasional all-star (maybe more than occasional since he's in NY) I don't think he's the next Yankee immortal.

Closing out with his best power month; love watching this kid play, love the work ethic— and also love how he handles himself with the media, with maturity and poise. His homers are such missiles, they make me smile like a kid again. Ripping boxes with my family looking for Judges this year has been priceless.
