The past 2022 has not been a career high. Aaron Judge (32, New York Yankees) is showing that there is a sky above the ceiling.
Judge had a batting average of 0.309 with 30 home runs, 77 RBIs, 61 runs and 88 hits in 80 games of the season until the 27th (Korea time), and an on-base percentage of 0.433 OPS of 1.145.
This is the record of the most homeruns and OPS in the entire Major League. Judge is also the only hitter in the Major League who exceeds 200 with his wRC+215.
Judge hit his 30th homer for this season in an away game of Subway Series against the New York Mets. He hit his 30th homer in the first half of his career. 에볼루션 바카라사이트
Judge did not miss Danny Young’s 81-mile sweeper and sent it out of the fence. His batting speed reached 112.3 miles (180.7 kilometers). Judge had no mercy on him.
Judge approached the 2022 record of winning his first MVP award with a home run by three. In 2017, when Judge received the Rookie of the Year award, he recorded 30 home runs in 84 games.
The New York Yankees have 16 games left in the first half. If Judge crosses the fence one out of every four games, his most home runs in the first half will be broken.
What’s surprising is that Judge hit 30 home runs, far exceeding his percentage performance in the first half of 2022. Judge’s OPS in the first half of 2022 is 0.983.
In other words, Judge is catching both percentage performance and home run in the first half of this season. Judge also has the experience of not falling into a slump like he did in the second half of 2017.
Judge currently has 59 home runs. Given his lackluster performance in April, Judge is capable of aiming for his career high. Judge’s career high is 62 in 2022.
Of course, it’s very difficult to maintain the current batting pace into the second half. That’s why Judge’s 2022 will be remembered as a season that will go down in MLB history.
However, Judge deserves high expectations. Born in 1992, he is 32. There are no signs of an aging curve anywhere.
Attention is focusing on whether Judge will show true clean hitters beyond 2022, which many expected to be their career high.
