Judge perfectly executed a season at what we’ve generally determined to be the 2nd or 3rd-least demanding position position. Raleigh was near-perfect at the most demanding by orders of magnitude.

The question is how many magnitudes. As w/many catchers, I think the answer is “more. No, still more.”

This is more about the catcher position than anything. Judge did everything that could possibly be asked of a RF. And he, like all modern outfielders, has a card in his pocket telling him where to stand each pitch.

This is a gymnastics-type perspective, in a sense, cc @amandalc.bsky.social
