I think he’ll be fine. It appeared that even before the injury, he was a little late on pitches last season. He was definitely the toughest out in the ALDS. In my opinion, he really should shorten his swing or increase his bat speed somehow to cut down on the Ks. Judge went through stretches where he’d barely strikeout and then he’d go through stretches where he’d strikeout 10 times in 3 games or something. Needs to focus on driving the ball up the middle, no need to try to pull all the time. He seems really focused on improving all the time from what the YES commentators say, we will see if he makes the proper adjustments. I think Judge would be even better in previous eras because those hitters at least tried to keep the Ks to a minimum. Strikeouts don’t matter to hitters anymore.
