Yogi Berra had 10 rings as a player. I love Judge, but HR totals and WAR are not everything.
I’m going to tell my grandkids that I got to listen to all of Aaron Judge’s games. Gonna be great.
Hopefully we can get him a ring this year man
Judge has had an incredible career. He’s also already 33 years old, so who knows how many more years the Yankees will have him for at or near this level of production. Right now, with Judge on the team the Yankees have a single AL pennant and no World Series titles. If they don’t win even one championship before Judge retires, it would be a real shame and an absolute indictment on the people running the Yankees organization.
JUDGE IS GREAT
INSPITE OF THE MEDIA
INSPITE OF BAD MANAGEMENET
INSPITE OF MEDIOCRE PLAYERS
INSPITE OF BAD UMPIRES
INSPITE OF ILLEGAL GAMBLING
INSPITE OF PED’S
99 IS #1
Mariano is #1 on the list. Many have done and even surpassed what Babe, Lou, Mickey and Joe have done but no one has been able to replicate that cut fastball and his ability to perform under the greatest pressure time and time again. That Yankee team doesn’t win a single WS without Mariano, much less get to them
Judge is one of the best regular season players of all time and won of the worst postseason players of all time. He’s the biggest reason he doesn’t have a ring. Just another oh he was good but couldn’t do it when it counts the most.

Judge is a modern superstar sure. But he still hasn’t really done well in the postseason. Plus when Ruth, Berra, Mantle, DiMaggio, etc played left center was almost 500ft. CF was something like 467ft… He’s several notches below Ruth still. It will be interesting to see if he makes it to 600 home runs.
