Aaron Judge Wants to Run?!

February 17

Episode Description

Aaron Judge is already the most feared hitter in baseball… and now he might be coming for the basepaths too.

After revealing a specific area he wants to improve, Judge hints that he plans to dramatically increase his stolen bases, potentially turning walks into instant scoring threats and making the Yankees’ offense even more dangerous. The crew reacts, makes bold predictions for his 2026 steal total, and debates whether aggression on the bases is worth the injury risk for a superstar of his size.

Did Juan Soto’s sudden speed surge inspire Judge? Can a player with Judge’s frame realistically swipe 30 or more bags in today’s game?

Plus, a caller sparks a heated throwback argument about Yankees teams of the past, defensive strength up the middle, and whether legends like Derek Jeter and Bernie Williams are remembered more fondly than they actually played in the field. Is nostalgia clouding reality, or are analytics missing what made those teams great?
