Aaron Judge was seemingly unstoppable at the plate during Wednesday's game against the Kansas City Royals. The superstar went 3-for-3 at the plate which included a go-ahead home run in the seventh inning. Judge also doubled and walked in this game as he continues his red-hot start to the season. He's posting video game numbers with a .409/.519/.803 slash line with seven homers and 21 RBI and we're not even to Easter yet. Judge seems like he wants his name to be in the MVP conversation again as he's showing no signs of slowing down.

Aaron Judge announced on Monday that he will play for Team USA in the 2026 World Baseball Classic and will serve as a captain. "I wanted to be there... I was looking forward to this opportunity again," Judge said. While it might not be what fantasy managers prefer if they draft the 32-year-old slugger next spring, it doesn't affect anything fantasy related this year. The reigning American League MVP did not take part in the last World Baseball Classic while he was preoccupied with his free agency, but he'll now get a chance to represent his country in the WBC next year. Not only did Judge have an outstanding 2024 campaign with 58 homers, 144 RBI, 133 walks and a 1.159 OPS in 158 regular-season games, but he's off to a fantastic start in 2025 with a league-best six homers, 20 RBI, 17 runs, .478 on-base percentage and 1.228 OPS. Judge is a beast.

Aaron Judge went 1-for-5 at the plate with a two-run shot during their 9-4 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday afternoon. Judge would tally his lone hit in the seventh inning of the contest when he took
Tim Mayza deep on a two-run home run. This blast also scored first baseman
Ben Rice. Judge has enjoyed an incredible start to the campaign, as he has gone deep six times through seven regular-season games. Judge enjoyed a career day on March 29 when he launched three long balls against the Milwaukee Brewers. Across this incredible start, Judge has tallied 17 RBI and holds an overall .379/.445/1.103 slash line. He has also been productive on the basepaths, swiping two bags. The 32-year-old remains a must-start option in all formats and a top play in DFS in any matchup. He will look to stay hot on Saturday, facing Pittsburgh southpaw
Bailey Falter.

Aaron Judge turned in another big game in a 9-7 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Thursday. Judge went 3-for-5 with a double, a homer, two runs, and four RBI in helping power the Yankees to the win. The veteran reached 500 extra-base hits for his career with a three-run homer in the first inning. Overall, Judge is off to a red-hot start, hitting .417 with three doubles, five homers, and 15 RBI thus far. He needs to remain locked into fantasy lineups moving forward.
