Juan Soto's stellar start for the New York Yankees has helped to overshadow the early-season struggles for Aaron Judge, though the 2022 American League MVP is optimistic things will turn around.
Speaking to ESPN's Jorge Castillo, Judge pointed out he's had "seasons where I start off worse than this in my career" and things improved.
"I'm still Aaron Judge," he said. "I don't think that's changed."
Judge is hitting .178/.317/.356 with four homers and 13 RBI in 123 plate appearances. While that looks bad, some of the underlying metrics show he's been the victim of bad luck more than anything else.
