When Judge has returned from injuries in the past, and/or when he scuffles (before last year), he takes a while to get back up to speed. I'd say expecting much from him in the 2-3 weeks after he returns is asking too much; it's what happens in the last 40 games, then, which is cutting it too close, IMO. My prediction: they can't lean on their starters in the meantime because they're not good enough, so the Yanks don't make it this year. Shocker.
Reds legend Ron Darling. Nice to see him doing well.
