Too bad he is 32 and won't be near 600 when he's done.

Over/Under 500?

Under

That’s great… BUT…. Being the fastest means nothing…. Has he led his team to any WS games???? Is it about winning or generating stats?????

Pretty impressive that he got there in over 100 fewer games (955) than Ralph Kiiner (1087), who was the previous fastest. Kiner, however, was 2 years younger than Judge when he hit his 300th HR.

Probably not… no way he would keep up his “record” pace & that would put him around 600 in 6 seasons at 38

Where have I heard this before? He’s better than ever at 32? If he was playing for Houston, we would never hear the end of it.

Want to know who the fastest to 100, 150, and 200 home runs was?

Ryan Howard

And he also had 300 career home runs by age 32.

Finished his career with 382 home runs

Meh, fewest games is meaningless to me. Show me the fewest PAs/ABs.

He was smart to do all the HGH and roids during his 4 years in the minors, so people don’t notice the transformation

Before Judge Babe Ruth had the record with 300 career home runs in 3,831 at-bats. Judge needed 3,431st at-bats, the new record. Judge was 400 at bats quicker. Of note, however, was that Ruth started his career in the Dead Ball era (1914-1919) His first 1110 at-bats produced only 49 home runs including 29 in the last season of the Dead Ball era (the most hit in a season up to that time). The Ruth went on to hit 54 then 59 setting the new major league mark in 3 consecutive seasons. The next 251 home runs Ruth hit (to get to 300) took 2721 at bats.

No, we love front page, multi-column write-ups every time Yankee Giraffe gets on base.

Pujols, who for some reason many on Twitter have forgotten about, had played in 2 WS and won one of them when he hit career HR 300....at the age of 28.
