Yankees captain Aaron Judge might not have won the World Series in 2024, but he’s coming off another spectacular year. Judge appeared in his first World Series game and helped the Yankees win in crucial moments.

It’s common for Judge to receive praise from several players. The Yankees captain has a huge reputation for his incredible performance. Judge is projected to have another strong season in 2025. When healthy, the Yankees skipper could easily smash close to 50 home runs in a regular season.
