Aaron Judge

At 34 years old, Judge remains one of baseball's most elite offensive engines despite showing some age-related decline in his early-season numbers. After winning his third MVP award in 2025 with a stellar .331 average, 53 home runs, and 114 RBIs, his 2026 start has been noticeably slower, sitting at .248 with just 17 home runs through early play. The power is still present—he's averaging roughly 40+ homers annually over the past several seasons—but the batting average dip and reduced run production suggest he may be entering a period of regression from his elite two-year stretch. Fantasy managers should temper expectations for MVP-caliber production while banking on his floor as a 40-home run threat and reliable run producer, though injury management and rest days could become more frequent considerations at this stage of his career.
