00:00But let's do number three because the pressure is on greatest on Aaron Judge.
00:04Look, he's going to the Hall of Fame.
00:06He's probably going to win his third MVP.
00:08He's arguably one of the 10, 15, 20 best hitters in history at this point.
00:14But that's all regular season.
00:17In the postseason, it just hasn't been the same for Judge.
00:22There's no signature moments.
00:23He's hitting .205 in 58 postseason games, 86 strikeouts.
00:28You remember the boombox incident in 2018.
00:33The Yankees tied the series 1-1 at Fenway Park.
00:36Judge left Fenway Park blasting a boombox playing New York, New York.
00:41His offense has gotten even worse since then.
00:43181 average, 657 OPS in 42 games since that gesture.
00:49Runners in scoring position in the postseason, 7 for 44 with 20 strikeouts.
00:53That's a 159 average.
00:54With two strikes, he's almost totally useless.
00:5715 for 138, that's 109, 86 strikeouts.
01:01Look, he goes into the postseason as hot as you could be.
01:04You know, he had a .370 average and a nearly 1,300 OPS in September.
01:08But he's had big Septembers before, and they haven't translated into October.
01:13The two starters he's going to face to open this series, Garrett Crochet and Brian Baio.
01:19He's 4 for 36 combined, two homers both off of Crochet, and 22 strikeouts.
01:27The one inaudible
01:44And now he's going to face to open this series.
