Judge went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run and a walk in Tuesday's 12-3 win over San Diego.
Judge played a small part in New York's 10-run seventh inning (he drew an intentional walk and scored a run), but he made a bigger mark earlier in the contest, belting a solo shot in the fourth inning to give New York its first run. The superstar slugger continues to put up video-game-like numbers; he leads the majors by a wide margin with a 1.275 OPS, .772 slugging percentage, .412 batting average and .503 OBP while tying two other players for the league lead in both homers (12) and RBI (34). Judge has reached base safely in 35 of 36 games this season, including in 32 consecutive contests.

Rotowire
Judge went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run, a walk and a stolen base in Friday's 9-4 win over the Pirates.

Rotowire
Judge went 3-for-5 with a home run, four RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base in Thursday's 9-7 win over Arizona.

Yankees' Aaron Judge: Continues homer binge
Rotowire
Judge went 1-for-1 with three walks and a two-run homer during Sunday's 12-3 win against the Brewers.
The reigning AL MVP launched his fourth homer of the season during the opening frame, and the Milwaukee pitching staff didn't give him much to hit the rest of the afternoon. Judge struggled in the early going last year with a .674 OPS through his first 27 games, but he's already got six extra-base hits and 11 RBI while going 6-for-11 through three games in 2025.

Yankees' Aaron Judge: Career-high eight RBI in rout
Rotowire
Judge went 4-for-6 with a double, three home runs, four runs scored and eight RBI in Saturday's 20-9 win over the Brewers.
The eight RBI were a career high for Judge, who took former teammate Nestor Cortes deep in the first inning before belting long balls off Connor Thomas in the third and fourth. It's the third time in his career Judge has gone yard three times in a game, and he narrowly missed a fourth homer in the sixth inning. After slugging 58 homers en route to the AL MVP Award last season, Judge is off to a hot start to his 2025 campaign as he looks to repeat.

Yankees' Aaron Judge: Gets off schneid with spring homer
Rotowire
Judge went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a sacrifice fly Saturday in a Grapefruit League loss to Philadelphia.
It's been a rough spring for Judge, who is slashing just .138/.278/.276 over 36 plate appearances. However, the slugger was at least able to avoid going through the exhibition slate without a long ball when he belted a 381-foot, two-run blast to left field in the third inning Saturday. Fantasy managers may remember that Judge had an awful first month last season, batting just .180 with three long balls, but he still finished the campaign with a career-best 1.159 OPS, along with 58 homers and a career-high 144 RBI, so there's no reason to fret about his tepid Grapefruit League stats.

Yankees' Aaron Judge: Spring debut coming March 1
Rotowire
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that Judge will make his Grapefruit League debut Saturday against the Astros, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.
Judge has been healthy early on in camp, but the Yankees wanted to ease him into game action this spring after he played 172 games between the regular season and postseason in 2024. The two-time MVP is slated to play right field and bat second for the Yankees this season.

Yankees' Aaron Judge: Expected to bat second this season
Rotowire
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said in an interview with Foul Territory TV on Wednesday that he plans to bat Judge second this season.
Judge hit in the two hole regularly in 2023 before moving to the three spot in 2024 while Juan Soto batted second. With Soto moving across town, Judge will now return to the second spot in the Yankees' lineup in 2025. Boone also seemed to imply that he'll likely hit either Cody Bellinger or Jazz Chisholm third, at least against right-handers. He has not decided on a leadoff hitter, but Chisholm and Jasson Dominguez seem to be the top candidates.

Yankees' Aaron Judge: Trending for March 1 spring debut
Rotowire
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said he expects Judge to make his Grapefruit League debut March 1 or shortly thereafter, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Judge isn't dealing with an injury during camp, but the Yankees plan to hold the star outfielder out for the first week and a half of exhibition play to let players vying for roster spots pick up more at-bats. After Judge played 172 games between the regular season and postseason in 2024, Boone is mindful of building in some extra maintenance this spring for the reigning American League MVP as he prepares for what should be another hefty game count in 2025, assuming health prevails. Judge should help his chances of staying healthy by handling a less active role on the defensive end during the upcoming season, as he's expected to move back to his more natural right field position after he made the majority of his starts in center field in 2024 while former teammate Juan Soto patrolled right field.

Yankees' Aaron Judge: Likely moving back to right field
Rotowire
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said Monday that it "makes sense" for Judge to move back to right field next season, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Judge shifted to center field in 2024 to accommodate Juan Soto, but with Soto headed to the Mets, Judge can now man his more familiar right field position. Manager Aaron Boone mentioned Jasson Dominguez as the leading candidate to start in center field in 2025, although Dominguez could play left field if the Yankees acquire a center fielder.

Yankees' Aaron Judge: Unanimously wins second AL MVP
Rotowire
Judge was named the 2024 American League Most Valuable Player on Thursday.
It's hardly surprising to see Judge take home his second MVP trophy after slashing .322/.458/.701 with 144 RBI in the regular season -- all of which represent career-best marks for the 32-year-old slugger. He also added 58 home runs on the year, which falls just four short of the Yankees' single-season record he set in 2022. After receiving all 30 first-place votes, Judge is now the first Yankee to win MVP unanimously since Mickey Mantle did so in 1956.

Yankees' Aaron Judge: Homers in Game 5 loss
Rotowire
Judge went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer and two walks in Wednesday's loss to the Dodgers.
Judge sent Yankee Stadium into a frenzy in the bottom of the first inning when he followed a one-out Juan Soto walk with a two-run homer to the opposite field. He also added a double and a pair of free passes. Judge's heroics were ultimately too little, too late as the Yankees blew a 5-0 lead, partly because of a key Judge misplay in the outfield amid a terrible defensive inning for the Yankees, and the Dodgers went on to capture the World Series title. He clubbed three home runs and drove in nine in 14 games this postseason, but Judge also batted just .184 with a 31.3 percent strikeout rate.
