BallsToTheWall: Aaron Judge

BallsToTheWall 06.17.17	All rise for the Judge.
NordicMindset 06.17.17	he's gonna break McGwire's record, I'm telling you
Illoomorpheme 06.17.17	Looking at how massive Judge is, and all of the advancements in training and weightlifting and modern medicine and diets, and his longest shot is about 500 feet; fuckers back in the day way over exaggerated how long home runs were. No god damn way the tubby midget that was Babe Ruth hit a ball 600 feet, especially with his toe tap swing that doesn't even manage half the power that modern swings do. This kid is going to legit hit the ball further than anyone on the face of the Earth ever has. I really want him to bulk up in the off season and maybe add 20 lbs of muscle so he hit hit 300lbs. 6'7 300 pounds of muscle, think about it. I'm not even a Yanks fan but I get all fanboy over Judge, the dude is a fucking monstrosity of a human being.
SteakByrnes 06.17.17	He's leading in home runs, batting average, and RBI, dude is a fucking animal
BallsToTheWall 06.17.17	I fuckin agree. And the dude has some speed. Already at 6 stolen bases.
Sevengill 06.17.17	Idk about reinvigorating baseball but he's certainly got the Bronx back in business. I saw his first game at Fenway -- the dude got jammed on a Porcello sinker, hit it off the Louisville Slugger logo, and still put it in Williamsburg. What a moose. Credit for really tightening up his approach since last year, too.
NordicMindset 06.17.17	now only if umps could call his strike zone accurately!
Sevengill 06.17.17	I feel like he's got the Jimmie Foxx zone. Foxx was once called out on a pitch off the plate by HOF umpire Bill Klem. He turned around and told him, "You sure missed that one, Bill," to which the ump replied, "If I'd had your bat I wouldn't have."
BallsToTheWall 06.17.17	Credit for really tightening up his approach since last year, too. (2) So glad I snagged him off the waivers in fantasy baseball in April.
theacademy 06.17.17	judge reinhold voice my name is judge
BallsToTheWall 06.17.17	You're right though Sevengill, I should have added "for me" to it because since the Florida Marlins died I became very, very bitter. Until Judge came long.
ShadowRemains 06.17.17	"Looking at how massive Judge is, and all of the advancements in training and weightlifting and modern medicine and diets, and his longest shot is about 500 feet; fuckers back in the day way over exaggerated how long home runs were" mickey mantle on the other hand...
unclereich 06.17.17	Wish the a's could play the yanks every day, we may actually go to the playoffs again
Titan 06.17.17	next Yankee captain.....book it not only can he tear the ball apart, he's pretty damn good in right, is a class act, has charisma, and is a good soul need more like him
guitarded_chuck 06.17.17	and when the yankees sign Harper and manny and co they'll once again ruin baseball
hikingmetalpunk 06.17.17	a fucking beast. 500 ft blast? jfc
Ryus 06.17.17	LITERALLY GOD < 3
Ryus 06.17.17	the knicks were just such a horrific disappointment last season (and will continue to be for years to come) that i've had to turn to baseball to make me feel good about ny sports
BallsToTheWall 06.17.17	not only can he tear the ball apart, he's pretty damn good in right, is a class act, has charisma, and is a good soul need more like him (2) A part of me wants to see Harper go to the Yankees and become the evil empire again
Titan 06.17.17	with the emergence of the bash brothers 2.0, the hot stove of harper to ny has been diminishing spend that money on the arms
teamster 06.17.17	I like my guy : Eric Thames
Satellite 06.17.17	the roids have really done a number on his gumline
Titan 06.17.17	nah no roids
unclereich 06.17.17	Like i said i wish the a's played em everyday =]
SteakByrnes 06.17.17	I'd say that maybe they could crawl out of last place, but my favorite team is San Fran and they are even worse lmao
unclereich 06.18.17	Lol i dont think so their defense is the worst ive ever seen and im addicted to baseball. On the bright side they have some pretty solid youth on their way and already on the roster. The giants on the other hand lol i love seeing that team suffer, worst fans in sports
0GuyMan0 06.18.17	Until Phil Jackson is gone (and thereby done ruining Porzingod's entire career) Judge can carry you all in NY.
NordicMindset 06.18.17	this series has been downright embarassing. these should have been automatic Ws.
unclereich 06.18.17	Hehehehe nothings automatic in baseball especially when youre playing an extremely good home team. I think theyve won like 9 road games tho
JWT155 06.18.17	Going to the game on July 5th, first time at new Yankee Stadium.
Ryus 06.18.17	"Until Phil Jackson is gone (and thereby done ruining Porzingod's entire career) Judge can carry you all in NY." don't ever say that :[
unclereich 06.18.17	Andddddd thats a 4 game sweep folks. The judge has now left the coliseum
Titan 06.18.17	son of a bitch......now you get to come to NY :) EDIT: oops, that would be L.A.
BallsToTheWall 06.18.17	Still gave me a hell of a week in fantasy. Having Judge, Goldschmidt and Votto on my squad has powered me to 1st place.
unclereich 06.19.17	Lmao thats sickening
BallsToTheWall 07.05.17	Over/under 50 homers?
SteakByrnes 07.05.17	I'm guessing he'll get at least like 45 home runs this season, I wouldn't be surprised if he gets more than 50 tho
BallsToTheWall 07.05.17	Yeah. I don't see this guy having a weak second half, he's been the definition of consistency.
SteakByrnes 07.05.17	Yea, I'm rooting for him to win the triple crown
NordicMindset 07.05.17	move over, Joe
BallsToTheWall 07.05.17	Every one of my fantasy starters are on pace to have at least 20-25 a piece. Grandal, Goldschmidt, Schoop, Sano, Seager, Votto, Shaw, Betts, Judge and Blackmon.
NordicMindset 07.11.17	What a show.
JWT155 07.11.17	Best homerun derby in ages, the new format is so much better, no one wanted to see batters take 20 pitches between swings
Satellite 07.11.17	i missed it. berman's gone, right? his "BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK" nonsense made the event fucking unwatchable.
JWT155 07.11.17	Berman is gonzo
Sevengill 07.11.17	they gave him a shoutout on one home run, so there was one "back back back back" Judge is unbelievable. that was the most fun derby since Sammy slammed 'em off the back walls.
Satellite 07.11.17	i think the last hr derby i made it all the way though was the one bobby abreu dominated in detroit 12 yrs ago. i usually just watch the first round and get bored. batting practice is only fun to watch in person imo.
Sevengill 07.11.17	yeah that was a fun one, with Ortiz's great first round too. give it a go with the new format. a lot more energetic, even if the hosts won't shut up and stop hogging the camera
Satellite 07.11.17	yeah but no matter how they tweak the format it's still just dudes walloping 70 mph hangers over and over again. i understand why people enjoy watching it, but it's never really captivated me (except when i was a kid and cecil fielder was participating). that said, i'd definitely watch it live given the opportunity.
Satellite 07.11.17	on mlb the show i used to create all-pitcher hr derbies for the hell of it. suffice it to say the fans didn't get their money's worth.
BallsToTheWall 07.11.17	Amazing how this guy became a legend in 1/2 months.
JWT155 07.11.17	went to a game last week, crazy how much judge gear is at yankee stadium now
Sevengill 07.11.17	"i used to create all-pitcher hr derbies for the hell of it" alignment: chaotic neuter
Nazzadan 07.11.17	He's apparently from my town and I've never heard of him until today. Everyone on Facebook is sperging out about him, I do not baseball I'm sorry
suppatime 07.11.17	^loser
SteakByrnes 07.11.17	That was the best derby since Josh Hamilton crushed like 28 in the first round
NordicMindset 07.12.17	Linden, CA
Satellite 07.12.17	wow this nazzadan fella seems fucking cool as shit
Nazzadan 07.12.17	Let me rephrase so I don't seem like the homos that are like "haha sportsball!" I used to play baseball a bit in school, I don't actively keep up with the professional scene. THERE, clarified.
NordicMindset 07.12.17	I hope he reaches that level where you don't even need to follow baseball to know of his name
AlexKzillion 07.12.17	Who is this guy and why is Fox Sports debating whether or not he is/will eventually be the Lebron James of baseball?
suppatime 07.13.17	@nazz i was just joshing bro but i feel you. @alexk he's fucking huge and he hits dongs for days
BallsToTheWall 07.13.17	Because he broke Dimaggio's rookie HR record, he's on pace to win both rookie of the year and MVP and like Baron said, most likely will break McGwire's rookie HR record as well.
MO 07.13.17	"No god damn way the tubby midget that was Babe Ruth hit a ball 600 feet" tubby midget wasn't he like 6'2? lmao
JWT155 07.13.17	He's on pace to beat Maris's HR record that held up until McGwire/Sosa and then Bonds.
suppatime 07.13.17	he's on pace for 57 rn and he'll likely slow down cuz almost nobody is this consistent throughout the season, but he smacks the fuck out of the ball so we'll see.
kris. 07.13.17	fuck judge and fuck the yankees tbh
suppatime 07.13.17	i hate the yankees but judge seems like a good guy
BallsToTheWall 07.13.17	What the hell is up with Sammy Sosa?
NordicMindset 07.13.17	he got the Michael Jackson
unclereich 07.14.17	Hard to believe this guy is real bringing back memories of big mac and bonds.
SteakByrnes 10.12.17	My man has three golden sombreros in the playoffs
Scoob 10.12.17	Judge can't bench press me
wham49 10.12.17	he has sucked in the playoffs
Scoob 10.12.17	Dat catch tho was dope Yankees suck
NordicMindset 10.12.17	not his fault the umps are blatantly fucking him in the ass
kris. 10.12.17	16ks in the ALDS damn .050 BA dude is flopping so hard in the postseason wow
MO 10.12.17	yea pretty horrible lol
Titan 10.13.17	he has hurt us as much as he's helped us.......dude can break out of it at any time
wham49 10.14.17	Holy shit a Titan sighting
NordicMindset 10.14.17	The umpires are single-handedly screwing him over Is it so hard to call an accurate strikezone
Frippertronics 10.14.17	Is it so hard to admit he can't handle the pressure of the playoffs yet? Umps handed the Yanks the series and you know it
Frippertronics 10.14.17	Plus 1 for 20 with 16 strikeouts? Three golden sombreros and you really think this lies solely with the umps? Judge is going to get exposed in the ALCS.
NordicMindset 10.14.17	I don't think it lies solely on the umps but holy hell the amount of balls that gets called strikes has got to be in the dozens by this point Also what the fuck are you talking about, the umps put the Yankees in a 2-0 hole to begin with by fucking up the Chisenhall non-HBP which should have been a strikeout and ended inning. Then the score would still be 8-3 and none of that shit would have fucking happened, Jesus fucking Christ
Frippertronics 10.14.17	"fucking up the Chisenhall non-HBP" that is literally Girardi's fault for not challenging it don't even try to blame the umps for his shitty coaching.
Frippertronics 10.14.17	Like how many excuses do you need to make for them?
NordicMindset 10.14.17	no, it is literally the umpire's fault for making the shitty call to begin with
Frippertronics 10.14.17	lol alright I'd be surprised if Girardi even has a job once this is over, what a fucking hack
SteakByrnes 10.14.17	I haven't really been paying attention to the playoffs other than catching a few games here and there. My boys the Giants aren't in it so my interest isn't really there
NordicMindset 10.14.17	No way he's not coming back unless he monumentally fucks up again. Leading the team back from down 2-0 erased all the ill-will people had towards him after Game 2
Frippertronics 10.14.17	Except for the part where people are STILL talking about it, people don't just forget about it just because you lucked out and managed to win the series The only way I see him remotely keeping his job is if they make to the World Series and actually not getting blown out by Cubs/Dodgers. If they can't even compete in the ALCS, his days are numbered.
ShadowRemains 10.14.17	judge has been awful in the post season, there's no other way to look at it than that
teamster 10.14.17	Judge out-kicked his coverage last night, lol, if you get my meaning...
Titan 10.15.17	Fripper lol Judge did this after the all star break as well so i wouldn't call it not handling the pressure of the playoffs. He's a rookie and has a lot to learn, every Yankee fan knows this. And jesus christ you sound like a sore little boy. You lost the series buddy, get over it. Your cy young stud let you down twice, was the worst player in the series, and now you're out because of him. As for the Girardi bashing, lol [2]. Yanks were supposed to win 80 games this year and finish in 3rd or 4th place. ALCS is quite the accomplishment for them. No Yankee fan in their right mind would've predicted this for them. They elevated their game and is pitching with the best of em. But let's bash Girardi instead. Do I agree with all of his decisions, No i don't. But his team is still ahead of 26 others. Whether he comes back, is invited back, or however it plays out will come down to the ego of both parties. And if he doesn't get a contract offer, you still have to replace him with someone better....not gonna be easy to do. He'll be back. Let's hope the drought doesn't reach 71 years, shall we?
Frippertronics 10.15.17	"You lost the series buddy, get over it." I have as much investment in the team as the Shapiros did throughout the aughts - practically next to none. I just like to start shit, that's all. Girardi IS trash, that's been established.
Frippertronics 10.15.17	Although, the way they've fucked their fans over for seventy years, I'm pretty sure their fans have earned every single right to be absolutely pissed at being let down yet again. Then again, Yankees fans wouldn't know how that feels lmao
Titan 10.15.17	Yankee fans know exactly how it feels, just in a little bit of a different fashion. When you're expected to win, and don't, it's pretty crushing. 2001 and 2004 ring a pretty hard bell. And believe me, those 2 years are worse than anything any Cleveland fan has ever experienced. Chronic vs. acute, if you will....
teamster 10.15.17	I don't know, blowing a 3-1 WS lead is pretty deflating Titan - An Indian fan would argue to the death.
