Before they chose him, they’d knew he’d do stellar. He took them to victory He did amazing; he hit 52 home runs, and the team made the playoffs with 91 wins. Unfortunately, after defeating the Twins in the Wildcard game and the Indians in the ALDS, the Yankees fell short of the eventual champion Astros in the ALCS. Since then, Judge has been one of baseball’s top 10 to 12 players every year.
