My "love" for the Mets on the other hand, have waned due to their incompetent manager and their management team in general (Why are Rosario and Smith still in AAA??? Ok lets not get into that...)
I just love the way Judge plays and the way he goes about his business. I love the way he carries himself on the field and off the field. He might be the most mature 25 year old kid I have ever seen. I truly wish many kids emulate the way he plays.
I think what GC1980 said about Judge's future is definitely within realm of possibility given his first 3 months of his performance this year. Of course you never know with injuries and etc. but .275 35HRs a year should be a base line for his projected numbers. If you think that's a "fairy tale" then you have to admit that you have something against Judge.
Also, I think that if Las Vegas had to make a line for the Maris HR record breaking odds for the next 5 years (Steroids free one) I would bet that Judge would have the highest odds breaking it.
On top of that, if Yankees wins a couple of WS in those years???? As Nuyawkers would say fuhgeddabadit.
Given all these potential outcomes I can't see Judge's price going down so low unless if he bats .200 and 30 HRs next year.
Even if he bats .230 for the rest of the year and hits only 10 more HRs or so. His cards would still sell well over the off season because all those factors I have mentioned.

Totally agree. Im looking long picture. People are still buying his cards. The market will buy up what the flippers dumped fast, and prices should climb again if hes doing good.
I figure hes a .275 35hr hitter too. Anything more is gravy. I would be surprised if he doesnt mash like 50 in a season though... he still could this one. He needs to figure out his swing here. Im sure he will. I would hope hes looking at video to see whats up
I feel good about their playoff chances this year if people can stay healthy
