All Rise! For the second straight season and the third time in his career, Yankees All-Star slugger Aaron Judge ($6,900; 32 FPTS) has reached 50 home runs.
He got to that exclusive plateau for this season on Sunday afternoon against the Rockies with this first-inning blast:
The Yankees went on to win, 10-3 to take two of three games from the Rockies in the Bronx this weekend. They are one game ahead of the Orioles, who are -105 on the Moneyline for their Sunday Night Baseball matchup against the Astros. The Yankees are -160 to win the AL East and have the second-shortest odds atin the MLB at +500 to win the World Series.
Judge has emerged as the heavy favorite at -2000 for the AL MVP Award and had 28.9% ownership in the $200K KNUCKLEBALL [$50K TO 1ST]. After going yard in the first inning, Judge added another homer in the seventh.
That homer was the middle of back-to-back-to-back blasts from Juan Soto ($6,500; 21 FPTS), Judge and Giancarlo Stanton ($5,000; 19 FPTS). In the eighth inning, Gleyber Torres ($4,000; 27 FPTS) got in on the action with a three-run blast of his own.
After his two homers on Sunday, Judge has 16 homers in his last 27 games. He raised his wOBA on the season to .491.
All the run support came behind Marcus Stroman ($7,600; 14.45 FPTS), who earned his ninth win of the season.
