Aaron Judge can't be a one-man band. as the team needs more offensive production and improved starting pitching.

By now, though, you've probably heard that it's actually Soto who misses Judge. This is from-the-horse's-mouth stuff, as the first-year Met caused a minor firestorm when he lamented to Mike Puma of the New York Post that things were better for him when he had "the best hitter in baseball" looming in the on-deck circle.

Aaron Judge and Paul Goldschmidt currently rank No. 1 and No. 2 in MLB in batting average, helping them accomplish a feat never seen before in New York Yankees history.
