    I have no idea. But I don't think strength has ever been an issue with him, so I would give him the benefit of the doubt.

    What does p*rn have to do with Judge?

    I get that it's the Yankees and people never want to see them have anything nice, but be better than this.

    He hit 52 his rookie season, and there's zero evidence to go making BS accusations like this.

    Not a Yankees fan but there is no evidence of this at all. I think it's more a fact that he has been healthy the whole season. Astros will beat them in the playoffs anyway

    Yeah, this is the kind of insinuation that Astros fans get pissed off about when it is someone on our team. We shouldn't be lobbing them at others.

    Personally I think a lot of professional athletes are MLB, NFL, NBA, MMA, ect... even some on Houston teams.

    6’7’’ 280lb, he doesn’t need PEDs.

    Not sure about PEDs but I would not be surprised if he gets the benefit of juiced balls more than others. I think MLB is rolling them out for Pujols right now too. I don't trust the MLB for s***.

    Judge being athletic at that size could be a sign of PEDs. The interesting thing is that Judge didn't show elite power until he came up into the majors at 25 years old.

    That was my first thought. I think the mlb is mixing in some juiced balls randomly (or maybe not so randomly). The way the balls were dead to start the season, no way you get that Gary Sanchez HR from the Yankees-Twins game, 473 feet just wasn't happening.

    Is that a career high distance for Sanchez?

    It's his longest since 2019 and currently the 4th longest HR in the MLB this season.

    DUDE, being 6”7’” has nothing to do with PEDs. His weight is not that far off for ideal for some one that height that works out. He is not a raging hulk.

    I've been suspicious of Pujols this year. He has an .860 OPS and the last time he had an OPS over .800 was in 2012. Wouldn't be surprised if there was a new undetected PED making the rounds.

    Seems like switching balls out for certain players would be difficult for the umps to manage and too risky for MLB to do. There would likely be one umpire that's underperforming about to get fired, but instead blackmails MLB in order to keep his job.

    I think the Baseballs are secretly stored for Aaron Judge.

    It is shameful Rob Manfred is behind this and paying off the Judge to hide the Cheating Yankee Letter

    Who cares?

    I did not care when Sosa, McGuire or Kamminiti did them, so why would I care now.

    You still need a high level of skill.
