And both HRs tied the game.

This MVP vote is going to be a landslide of epic proportions
Anyone who doesn't vote for him for MVP should lose their vote. He leads the league in every category except batting average and he's 7th in that stat. He also has 16 steals and has played a gold glove right field as well as a solid CF. He has 20 more HR's than any other player. If the year ends and he has 20 or more HR's than anyone else it will be the first time that happened since 1928.

I don’t think anyone has ever had a better contract year than Judge has. I can only imagine how much extra the Yankees will have to pay him going forward. I thought they made him a decent offer before the season, too. It was hardly a lowball situation, but now he might get $40m/year? More?

I remember when he debuted I thought he was going to be another Rob Deer. Thought he could hit 30 HR, but would also K 175 + times.

Never in a million years did I think he'd be top 5 in batting average in September.


And yeah, they are going to be backing up the Brinks' truck. But they cannot get outbid, and I think they know that, but can never be sure with little Steinbrenner.

I thought the offer was a fair one considering he had a few injuries and is already over 30. I think 40 mil a year may be a minimum at this point.

Them and San Fran. If the Mets lose Degrom I can see them going all in on Judge.

Yup. I remember that even the Yankees fans weren’t all that excited for Judge when he came up. He was a strikeout machine in those days. Amazing how much progress he’s made. Everyone seems to see it except for Alex Cora at this point.
