OT: Aaron Judge...
- Thread starter gary-7
- Start date
...and a "5-tool" player as well.
Mike Trout has rightfully earned thie moniker of best player in the game (closest thing to a modern-day Mickey Mantle I've ever seen), but if Judge can keep up what he's doing Trout may have a very large competitor for that title.
Next year will be the telling. This season, he is new to the MLB pitchers. Next season, they will have enough film to form a strategy.
The Knicks just signed him to a 4 year $228 million dollar contract.
Yep. Like a giant-sized Derek Jeter.
I'm a Tar Heel fan living in NY and Aaron Judge is the Prince of the City. Seems like a decent guy too. Does things the right way.

I don't know squat about him but he sounded intelligent when interviewed on ESPN after the derby. Well spoken and mature for such a young fellow. Baseball is in pretty good hands if he's the face of the game moving forward.
Yeah, everyone raves about his character. We're very fortunate as Yankee fans to go from Jeter to Judge as faces of the franchise.
Yep. Same for Trout.
That was a great event last night and I hope like hell younguns' out there watched and wished. Baseball is a great sport and needs to be shown as such.
Home runs runs draw the casual fan (like myself) back to baseball. Judge is on the most popular team also. Good for baseball! Harper, Stanton, and Judge are some great young hitters and MLB has never had a problem finding pitching stars (keeping them healthy is another story).
I have him on my fantasy team for $6. Selected him when he was in the minors in the second round of my 9 owner league. Saw him in the college World Series a few years ago when he played for Fresno State. He was raw then but you could tell he had potential. One of my hobbies is following stub players in the minors until they make the jump to the majors. His current fantasy market value is about $40. I'm in first place in my auction league by 15 points. I have wrapped up the $1,400 first place money due to this monster. The good thing is that I have him locked up for another year for the $6.
Judge is a 25-year old rookie (old for a rookie) He's on pace for 60 hrs this year. He has the same make-up as Derek Jeter.
I also have Chris Sale of my fantasy team. He is a Randy Johnson clone and is the best pitcher in baseball. Paid $44 for him but he is the ace of my staff and worth every penny . Love fantasy baseball!

First place baby....$1400 bucks. You started the thread. You gave me the opening.You know what everyone loves to hear...stories about your fantasy team.
I know we joke with gary by saying he has more than one account, but we can both promise you that we are two different people haha
Fantasy baseball is a passion. Have been in the same league with the same group of guys for 20 years. I could keep this thread alive until the BB season starts..
