New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge (back) was reportedly dealing with back soreness heading into Sunday's game against the Athletics. It didn't seem to be bothering him too much as he produced a big game. Judge took right-hander Luis Severino deep in the fourth inning with a two-run shot. He would later hit another home run which would be his 30th of the season. Judge finished this game 2-for-4 with two homers, four RBI, three runs scored, and a walk in the win. He might serve as the DH for a few more games until his back is better, but that issue isn't going to slow him down at the plate.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-1 road loss to the Cincinnati Reds. The superstar right-fielder was the Yanks' only source of offense on the day, as he put his team up early in the top of the first frame. However, that'd be the only lead they'd hold, with New York going 0-for-12 with runners in scoring position. Judge -- and the Yankees' lineup as a whole, for that matter -- has cooled substantially since his torrid stretch earlier in the year. Still, he's batting .367 as we near July, and is second in the league with his 28 homers. It's another MVP-like season for the Fresno State product, despite hitting "just" .274 with a 1.007 OPS over 73 June at-bats.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge provided one of the club's few highlights in a 5-3 loss to the Baltimore Orioles on Friday. Judge took Orioles right-hander Tomoyuki Sugano deep for his 27th home run, a third-inning solo blast. He also singled twice, drew a walk, and struck out in a 3-for-4 night. It was the first multi-hit game since June 10 for Judge, who also broke six-game homer and RBI droughts. While the two-time AL MVP has cooled off of late, he's still slashing an otherworldly .371/.468/.739 with 61 RBI and 67 runs over 333 trips to the plate. However, he's an unsightly 4-for-19 with no extra-base hits, zero RBI, and 10:2 K:BB against the Orioles' Zach Eflin. The right-handed Eflin will start against Judge and the Yankees on Saturday.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge crushed his 26th home run of the season in a 2-1 loss to the Boston Red Sox on Friday. Judge struck out in his first three at-bats against star southpaw Garrett Crochet, but he got a measure of revenge in the top of the ninth inning. With Boston leading 1-0 and Crochet two outs away from a complete-game shutout, Judge crushed a 443-footer over the Green Monster to tie the game. While Boston won in extra innings, Judge continues to tear it up. Now tied with Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh for the league lead in homers, Judge has put together a ridiculous .390/.485/.780 line with an AL-best 60 RBI in 303 trips to the plate. He'll face Red Sox righty Hunter Dobbins on Saturday. Judge took Dobbins yard in a meeting last weekend.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge is getting his first breather of the 2025 season in Thursday's series finale at Kauffman Stadium against the Kansas City Royals. With Judge on the bench, Cody Bellinger will shift to right field and will hit cleanup against veteran right-hander Seth Lugo. Judge has been the best player in baseball this year, but everyone needs a break eventually. The 33-year-old two-time MVP and six-time All-Star is hitting an absurd .394/.490/.779 with a 1.269 OPS, 25 home runs, 59 RBI, 64 runs scored and six steals in 249 at-bats. He has also homered four times in his last three games. Expect to see him back in the lineup for Friday's series opener at Fenway Park against the division-rival Boston Red Sox. Bellinger is currently riding an eight-game hitting streak (10-for-33 with a homer and four RBI) and has hit .286 with a homer and two RBI in seven career at-bats against Lugo.

New York Yankees outfielder and reigning American League MVP Aaron Judge continued to be unstoppable in Wednesday's 6-3 victory over the hosting Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium, homering for the third straight game. Judge finished 1-for-4 on the evening with a solo bomb, his 25th of the year, in the seventh inning off reliever Steven Cruz. He also walked once and struck out twice. Judge hit two homers in Sunday's loss to the division-rival Boston Red Sox and now has eight RBI over the last three games. We're running out of things to say about Judge, who is now hitting .394 on the year with a 1.269 OPS with 25 home runs, which is one off the major-league lead of 26 (Cal Raleigh). The 33-year-old slugger is in the 100th percentile in xwOBA, xBA, xSLG, xISO and xOBP.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge went 2-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Tuesday's 10-2 win against the Kansas City Royals. He added a single and struck out twice. The superstar slugger hit a monster two-run bomb off Royals' pitcher Noah Cameron in the top of the first inning, leaving the bat at 117.9 MPH and traveling 469 feet. He also singled a run home in the top of the sixth. Judge is amid an incredible season at the plate, slashing a ludicrous .396/.491/.776 with 24 home runs, 17 doubles, 58 RBI, 63 runs scored, and five steals. Furthermore, he leads the league in virtually every expected statistic and quality of contact metric, and holds a walk rate (15.3%) in the top 4% of hitters. We're beginning to run thin on superlatives for him.

New York Yankees outfielder and reigning American League MVP Aaron Judge hit two more home runs in the 11-7 loss to the division-rival Boston Red Sox at Yankee Stadium on Sunday night. Judge did all he could in this one, going 3-for-5 with four RBI, three runs scored and a walk to continue what has been another dominant season at the plate. The 33-year-old right-handed slugger now has 23 home runs on the year, which is tied for second in MLB with Shohei Ohtani and behind only Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh (26). Believe it or not, the two long balls snapped a six-game homer drought for Judge, who is now hitting an absurd .396/.493/.771 with 55 RBI, 62 runs scored and five stolen bases in 64 games played. He leads major-league baseball in runs, hits, average, on-base percentage, slugging percentage, OPS and total bases. Judge is simply amazing.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge was the only bright spot for this offense during Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Judge smacked a solo home run off right-hander Landon Knack in the fourth inning. He would go yard again in the eighth inning off right-hander Chris Stratton. The two blasts were the only source of offense for this team that ended up losing 18-2 on Saturday. Judge finished the game 3-for-4 with two homers and two RBI in the loss. He's now slashing .398/.490/.778 with 20 homers, which is only one behind Cal Raleigh for the MLB lead in homers.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge went 2-for-5 in the team's 8-5 loss to the Dodgers on Friday, blasting a solo home run in the first inning of the contest. It was his 19th of the year, now with 48 RBI, 52 runs scored, four steals, and a league-leading .392 batting average as well. Having yet another phenomenal season and battling it out with Shohei Ohtani for top fantasy scorer, managers who drafted the6x All-Star are happy with their selection so far. A consistent producer like the6-foot-7 slugger is a good play in DFS most nights, too, and he'll go up against Landon Knack on Saturday. Judge is 0-for-2 off of Knack in his career, but despite being a right-handed pitcher, Knack has reverse splits, allowing a .928 OPS to right-handed batters compared to a .681 OPS to lefties, so it could be another productive night for the two-time MVP.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge put his team on the board early during Saturday's game against the Colorado Rockies. Judge set the tone on this one with a solo home run off left-hander Kyle Freeland in the first inning. He was quiet for the rest of the game outside of scoring another run in the fifth inning. Judge finished his day 1-for-4 with his league-leading 18th home run of the year. The veteran slugger has homered in back-to-back games and is putting together an MVP-caliber season.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge hit his 17th home run of the season in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Colorado Rockies. The Yankees surprisingly mustered just five hits at Coors Field in the series opener, but Judge finished 2-for-4 with a solo shot and a single. It was the seventh home run of May for Judge. The 33-year-old has been on a tear all season and now owns a ridiculous .398/.487/.754 line across 226 trips to the plate. He has a relatively favorable matchup Saturday against Rockies left-hander Kyle Freeland, who has recorded a woeful 5.68 ERA in 50 2/3 innings this year.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge continued to be a fantasy juggernaut in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Rangers. Judge went 2-for-4 with a single, a two-run home run, and a strikeout. He also stole a base. The 33-year-old snuck an eighth-inning Caleb Boushley sweeper just over the right-field corner wall for his 16th long ball of the season, putting him just behind Shohei Ohtani and Kyle Schwarber for the most in baseball. Judge has once again been one of fantasy's best hitters, slashing .403/.491/.762 with 43 RBI and four stolen bases in 214 plate appearances.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a 3-2 win over the Mariners on Wednesday. It was his 15th home run of the season, keeping him tied for the league lead with Kyle Schwarber. Judge continues to be the best hitter on the planet, as this was his fourth multi-hit game in his past five. He's well on his way to winning his third AL MVP award.

New York Yankees designated hitter Aaron Judge went 2-for-5 with two home runs and three RBI in his team's 11-7 loss to the Athletics. The fantasy stalwart's power binge continued on Saturday, as he launched long balls No. 13 and No. 14 on the season. Though he's slowed down in recent days, Judge is on an absolute tear at the dish. After hitting just one HR from Apr. 5 to Apr. 26, the 33-year-old has crushed an astonishing seven no-doubters in his last 12 appearances. He's come back to Earth slightly, hitting "only" .396 with a ludicrous 1.258 OPS. In 39 games this season, the superstar slugger has put together a multi-hit performance in 18 of them (60%). At this point, the superlatives to describe his excellence are running thin.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge is on another planet at the plate right now. The reigning MVP crushed a homer off right-hander Zack Littell, which was his fourth in the last seven games. He would later single in the contest as well, which pushed Judge's multiple-hit streak to six games. Yes, you're reading that correctly, Judge has recorded two hits or more in six straight games. The right-handed slugger is hitting .432 on the season, which actually might be better than video game numbers. Judge has 11 home runs on the season and extended his hitting streak to 13 games with his performance on Saturday.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge went 3-for-3 with a home run, three RBI, one run, and one walk in a 5-4 loss to the Orioles on Wednesday. He continues to show why he is the best hitter in baseball, and his .427/.521/.761 slash line is almost unbelievable. This was his fourth straight multi-hit game and his third home run over that span. Judge could potentially make a run at the triple crown this season and is making his case to be the first overall pick of 2026 fantasy drafts.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge went 4-for-4 with a double, a run, and a stolen base during their 3-2 loss to the Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday evening. Judge would hit his double in the sixth inning and would score on a Paul Goldschmidt sacrifice fly. He would tally his third single of the game in the eighth inning and then proceed to swipe second base, but could not cross home plate a second time. This extended Judge's current hitting streak to four games. Over his previous 11 contests, the 32-year-old has only gone hitless once and posted an impressive .488/.571/.659 slash line with four doubles and one long ball. Through 24 games, Judge has gone deep seven times and holds an impressive .411 AVG. He remains a top option in DFS and a must-start option in all formats.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge was seemingly unstoppable at the plate during Wednesday's game against the Kansas City Royals. The superstar went 3-for-3 at the plate which included a go-ahead home run in the seventh inning. Judge also doubled and walked in this game as he continues his red-hot start to the season. He's posting video game numbers with a .409/.519/.803 slash line with seven homers and 21 RBI and we're not even to Easter yet. Judge seems like he wants his name to be in the MVP conversation again as he's showing no signs of slowing down.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge announced on Monday that he will play for Team USA in the 2026 World Baseball Classic and will serve as a captain. "I wanted to be there... I was looking forward to this opportunity again," Judge said. While it might not be what fantasy managers prefer if they draft the 32-year-old slugger next spring, it doesn't affect anything fantasy related this year. The reigning American League MVP did not take part in the last World Baseball Classic while he was preoccupied with his free agency, but he'll now get a chance to represent his country in the WBC next year. Not only did Judge have an outstanding 2024 campaign with 58 homers, 144 RBI, 133 walks and a 1.159 OPS in 158 regular-season games, but he's off to a fantastic start in 2025 with a league-best six homers, 20 RBI, 17 runs, .478 on-base percentage and 1.228 OPS. Judge is a beast.
