Home runs - 62 (#1, 16 ahead of Schwarber, all-time AL record,). RBI - 131 (#1 - tied with Alonso). OPS - 1.111 (#1, .92 ahead of Alvarez). Easy pick-up of MVP Award - 28 first-place votes, 410 points to Ohtani's 280.
These were just a few numbers from the monumental 2022 of Aaron Judge, one of the greatest offensive seasons ever. Then came free agency. Following two months of negotiation - with the Yankees and Giants as chief suitors - Judge chose to take a $360 million offer and remain in New York.
This blog will follow the first year of his nine-year contract - his personal accomplishments and how he helps the Yankees in their quest to return - after thirteen seasons of "almost" - to World Series glory. Most focus will be made on offense, for while Judge is a world-class outfielder, we all know why fans watch; it also has easier metrics to track.
