The Verdict: Player of the Week

Aaron Judge, who came out hot this 2020 season, has been named American League Player of the Week. Judge stepped onto the field this year with something to prove and he sure is proving it. This week alone Judge had a .368 AVG, 6 HR, 13 RBI. This season he has a .290 AVG, .903 SLG, and a 1.275 OPS

In just five games, Judge has shown exactly what he can do when he is fully healthy. In the five games between July 27 and Aug. 2 Judge hit SIX home runs tying 2007 A-rod for the most by a Yankee through their first eight games of the season.
