re: Is Aaron Judge becoming the Lamar Jackson of baseball?

.083

Is he betting on baseball?

And that's fine

I just also feel like we then need to acknowledge him playing well when he inevitably puts a good October together

I doubt it. People never drop player narratives once they stick. Kershaw still deals with shite when he's had more quality playoff starts than bad ones

pitching failures are a lot more visible than a straggling batter. They also can cost you more than a game if you burn a pen after pulling a pitcher

a single moment in the playoffs can wash away a lot. No one remembers Yordan struggling in the 2022 postseason but they remember the Seattle walk off and Philly game-6 homer

I just remember him and his teammates cheating

So salty.

There is absolutely no proof of anyone cheating on the 2022 World Series winning team.

Now the 2015 and 2016 Yankees? Yes they cheated and were punished for doing so.

Sorry cheater.

Because Yordan was on the team in 2017?

It’s been well reported that any accusations of the Yankees cheating were debunked.

No it hasn’t been debunked. They were in fact disciplined. Your little Yankee propaganda trying to deny it came out in 2020 and then it came out in 2022 that they were disciplined in 2017. It isn’t debatable. Sorry that hurts your feelings. Your team cheated. Deal with it little guy.

You probably also believe Kamala when she says this is the best economy in American history.

All-time transcendent talent

clearly the second best player in his sport

always sabotages his team's ability to win in the playoffs every year

You really need to chill out with all the hyperbole

It’s hard to compare it to a football player. I’d like to know if another baseball player of this caliber has had such a huge disparity between regular and postseason performance. Was A-Rod this bad?

Jeter owes his last ring to Arod. in 09 he had a monster post season. So did Godzilla.

Alex Rodriguez hit .365 with 19 hits, 6 home runs, 18 RBIs and 15 runs scored in 15 games in the 2009 postseason

Hideki Matsui: .349 batting average with 15 hits, 4 homers, 13 RBIs and 5 runs scored in 15 games and the WS MVP

Derek Jeter hit . 344 with 22 hits, 3 home runs, 6 RBIs and 14 runs scored in 15 games

All 3 of them are laughing their balls of at Judge right now.
