Aaron Judge is at it again. A season after running away with AL MVP honors, the New York Yankees superstar is off to the best start of his career, batting .412 and already producing 4.0 WAR a quarter of the way into the 2025 season.

In 1994, former Yankees outfielder Paul O’Neill, who won four World Series titles with the franchise (1996, 1998, 1999 and 2000), hit over .400 until dropping below the hallowed mark on June 17, said Judge shouldn’t look at that number as a measure of lofty production.
