With each passing day, Aaron Judge is only growing as a brand in Major League Baseball. Given his incredible form this season, the New York Yankees star is in a league of his own. Be it on the field or off the field, Judge has emerged as the biggest MLB star this season.
With 30 home runs hammered from the plate, Judge is the frontrunner for the American League MVP 2022. Not only the American League but the Yankees star has probably been the best player in the entire Major League Baseball in the current season.

Yankees lose third in a row
The Yankees have dominated the entire first half of the season. Hence, the Pinstripes would want to finish the first half on a high note. However, after their two defeats in Fenway Park, the Pinstripes lost their first game of the three-game series against the Cincinnati Reds.
Meanwhile, this is only the second time the Yankees have lost three straight games this season. If not for the Orioles and White Sox, The Bronx Bombers have not lost any series in 2022. And losing the second game against the Reds means the Yankees will lose their third series. This is something Aaron Judge and the company would not want at any cost.
