Rob Parker and Andy Furman argue that Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge has already established himself as one of the top 5 MLB sluggers of all time. They highlight Judge’s impressive career home run totals, his record-setting single-season performance of 62 home runs in 2022, and his consistently high slugging percentage and OPS. This season, Judge continues to demonstrate his elite power-hitting ability with standout performances, bringing his home run total to 48!
Rob Parker: "In 2017, I ranked Aaron Judge as one of my top 5 sluggers of all time, and people thought it was too premature and lacked sufficient sample size. But I’m telling you now that, even if Judge retired today, I believe he would still rank among the top 5 sluggers of all time!"
Andy Furman: "He is not getting the exposure that he deserves. What he has done over the last 90 to 100 ball games is unheard of! And they don’t even hype him enough for MVP. Look, he’s been overshadowed by the NFL, I know that! HE'S GOT TO BE THE MVP!!! THERE WOULD BE AN INVESTIGATION IF HE ISN'T!!!!"
