2024 Yankees Season

Is there something about Judge's swing that is the reason he hits so many homers to right?
I think he doesn’t try and pull everything to left and goes with the pitch. Strategy is to pitch him low and away. He is strong enough and has a good eye and when he recognizes the pitch he can drive it to right. Same thing with Soto hitting home runs to left.
 
Anything less than taking 4 out of 3 from the lowly White Sox would be a disgrace.
 
I'll see that and raise you one- anything less than 5 out of 3 would be unsatisfactory! :cool:

There are so few players today, it seems, that are willing to go with the pitch. They keep trying to pull the ball and then take a seat after a weak grounder to an infielder.

I blame the emphasis on stats, both by management and the agents.

It's always been a truism that trying to pull outside pitches just keeps middle infielders busy. I've seen about 20-25 games and it appears he doesn't try to do that, instead hitting it where it's pitched.
