No Way. This the real deal. I'm a NY Mets fan, but I watch every Yankee game with my father & Aaron was batting .172 10 days ago, since the All Star Game.
Mark or Sosa, didn't have batting slumps.
This ain't Roids. This is a very gifted athlete.
My nephew is professional major league scout (Met fan) & he hasn't cried foul. Just jealous.

A ROD doesn't have a home run
>>> didn't have batting slumps
Didn't have batting slumps on their way to batting tittles. Both have admitted using steroids.
Which is what this thread is about.
A Rod doesn't have a home run record. What is the relevancy again?

50 home runs as a rookie is
50 home runs as a rookie is amazing, steroids or no steroids. IMO the kid gets the benefit of the doubt at this point and that his greatness is not due to steroids.,

You're from Oakland right? I guess that would make you an authority on cheating. Since that's where it all started.

One of the things that leads
One of the things that leads me to believe that Judge isn't chemically manipulated is that he was pretty much the same size and build that he is now while playing HS football. He obviously had the raw material to do the things he is doing and with today's training methods, he is just starting to reach his potential.
On top of that, he doesn't exhibit the "roid" arrogance that former juicing players showed on and off the field.

Actually from Boston a Sox
Actually from Massachusetts a Red Sox fan living in the bay area...not Oakland!
Big Papi cheated to how do you think he put up Bonds like numbers at 40. That should clear up the "How full of shit am I part of this" no homer here.
Oakland and Canseco are ground zero for roids. Just follow Canseco to Texas.
Cheating for millions of dollars...America's pastime!

In this day & age "steroids"
In this day & age "steroids" is a generic term to mean all sorts of chemical enhancements that aren't necessarily actual steroids, and more importantly aren't detectable.
The kid is young so it's harder to imagine he would be using banned substances to help him perform better, but the pressures to succeed at that level are tremendous and the monetary rewards for success are even more tremendous, so especially when HUNDREDS of millions of dollars are in the conversation anything is possible with almost anyone.
BTW, if the balls are "juiced" it's not cheating.

>>>Or are you saying MLB lets certain players pass to increase interest in the game<<<
If that question is directed at me, I don't think the league lets anyone "pass", but I do think with the vast sums of money involved there are many chemists and such that will always look to put together new substances that boost performance but are not yet detectable, and there are many professional agents and hangers-on (slime) who will push that angle hard (since lots of that money goes their way with little to no risk) and that there are many individual organizations willing to look the other way.
Winning/succeeding in sports is a very addictive thing and at the professional level the pressure to win/succeed is emmence, so naturally no matter how honorable people may be there are many people at many levels of professsional sports who for many reasons become nothing short of desperate to succeed.
And then along comes an answer. Under those pressurized circumstances and with the potential for limitless rewards it's got to be hard to resist.
But then again, every once in a while there are just special athletes who can do amazing things naturally, especially when they're young.
The problem is that when you get to the big leagues EVERYBODY is special and can do amazing things, and that's where the pressure starts.

More full counts than most ..
More full counts than most ... I watch the kid a lot
That does not come from roids. It's patience and a good eye
Since he's always at 3-2, he has more walks & strikeouts
When he does not walk or strikeout he hits it out. Because on 3-1 and 3-2, pitchers have to throw a strike. No rocket science here....
Reminds me of a young Derrick Jeter in his humility

Can the Yankmees challenge the Tribe ?
Me thinks No.
Sale gets shelled tonite, Pomeranz is gassed, Mookie, Pedroia, Nunez all banged up. Rest of the lineup is garbage. Wouldn't be shocked if they get swept again. Sawx goin' Nowhere.
Houston vs. Cleveland for the AL crown
Maybe Arizona gives the Dodgers a run, maybe not.
Dodgers vs. Nats/Cubs for the NL crown

Astros within a game of best
Astros within a game of best record now.
Sawx might even blow the division. Yanks have Severino going tomorrow while the hapless Boston offense looks to do nothing against Estrada. If they get swept by Toronto it's ON.
Four games with Houston to close it out might be the recipe for a complete and total collapse. Won't even matter anyway. Cleveland or Houston or the Yanks or Twins will handle them EASILY.
Arrieta gets knocked around tonite too.
Cubs whole staff/pen is wicked shaky right now. I think the Nats would handle them.
