While Aaron Judge missed more than 50 games last season, his performance was up to his usual standards. It is a known fact that “All Rise” wants a Gold Glove. The fact that he has never won it does not sit well with the Yankees fan. So they’re now showing their displeasure to the world.
After finding out that Judge was not in the list of Finalists, a fan expressed his disbelief saying “Yet Again!”

Through this, all the Fan sentiment is the same – Their Captain Aaron Judge deserves a Gold Glove, the fact that he has missed out on even nominations for two years is preposterous for them. Wonder what Aaron Judge has to say about that?
