4 days agoNew York Yankees outfielder
Aaron Judge continued his torrid stretch at the plate, hitting a two-run home run and drawing three walks in a 12-3 win over the Brewers. This is right on the heels of a three-homer performance on Saturday, and he's now slashing .545/.643/1.818 through three games. He was already known to be one of the best hitters in baseball, but he is still managing to blow everyone's expectations out of the water. He is battling with a select few other players to be the first overall pick in 2026 fantasy drafts.

5 days agoNew York Yankees outfielder
Aaron Judge put together a legendary performance during Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. The superstar slugger went 4-for-6 with three home runs and eight RBI in the blowout victory. Yes, you're reading that correctly. Judge crushed three bombs and notched early double digit RBIs in a truly epic performance. The righty slugger nearly hit a fourth homer, but sadly he came up a few feet shy. Regardless, it was an awesome day at the plate for Judge as he sent both Yankees fans and fantasy managers home happy on Saturday. Judge is obviously a must-start player in every fantasy format.

1 month agoThe New York Post's Greg Joyce reports that New York Yankees outfielder
Aaron Judge is set to make his Grapefruit League debut this Saturday, March 1, against the Houston Astros. Nothing is wrong with Judge physically, but the Yankees wanted to give him a little extra rest after the team's World Series run last fall. Manager Aaron Boone said on Wednesday that he plans to hit Judge in the No. 2 spot in the lineup this year now that
Juan Soto is playing for the New York Mets. The 32-year-old two-time MVP will also be moving from center field back to right field, which will be less stressful from a physical standpoint. Judge is firmly in play for a top-three overall fantasy selection in drafts this spring after leading the league in WAR (10.8), homers (58), RBI (144), walks (133), on-base percentage (.458), slugging percentage (.701), OPS (1.159) and total bases (392) in 158 regular-season games in 2024.

1 month agoNew York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said on Foul Territory on Wednesday that he's planning to return outfielder
Aaron Judge to the No. 2 spot in the lineup this year. Boone explains that it makes sense with the Yankees' lineup being left-handed heavy, especially with outfielder/designated hitter
Giancarlo Stanton (elbows) currently sidelined. The skipper said that infielder
Jazz Chisholm Jr. and outfielder
Cody Bellinger are candidates to hit in the three-hole, although it could be someone else with a left-hander on the mound. Judge hit in the No. 3 spot last year with
Juan Soto in the two-hole, but now that Soto is out of town, Judge will return to second in the batting order in the Bronx. Chisholm or young outfielder
Jasson Dominguez are the primary options to hit leadoff. Judge won the American League MVP in 2024 and is a top-five fantasy asset.
