BRONX, NY: The New York Yankees have seen their fair share of ups and downs during the 2024 season. Currently sitting in first place of the AL East, up 0.5 games, they have their captain to thank for most of that.
Aaron Judge is no doubt a generational player. The type that can carry an entire franchise on and off the field. That’s exactly what he’s doing this season.
Judge is currently slashing an outstanding .318/.449/.695 with 41 home runs and 103 RBI.

Aaron Judge has 298 career homers and will soon become the fastest player to reach 300 in terms of games played. Ralph Kiner holds the current record at 1,087 games, Judge just finished his 945th career game.
The gap between his league leading stats with second place is quite remarkable. Judge has 41 home runs. Shohei Ohtani is second with 33 home runs. Judge has a 216 wRC+, Juan Soto is second with 189 WRC+. Judge has a 1.153 OPS, Soto is second with a 1.030 OPS.
The Yankees signed Judge to a record 9-year, $360 million deal after his historic 2022 season, where he hit an AL record 62 home runs. With Judge putting up even better numbers in 2024, there’s a chance he’s going for his own record.
