Aaron Judge stole the American League MVP award away from Shohei Ohtani in 2022 by hitting an AL-record 62 home runs. Can 'Shotime' one-up him in 2023?
It also took Judge 95 games to hit home run number 35, and Ohtani is sitting on 31 long balls heading into the All-Star break with 91 games played. He’s slightly behind pace, which leaves sportsbooks undeterred. Why?Most people I talk to hate the fact the Yankees play in a shoebox of a ballpark, and it certainly helped Aaron Judge in his pursuit as he had 30 dingers at home.
This year, Ohtani gets to play 81 games at Angel Stadium, which is the fifth-best stadium to crush dingers at, and he has hit 15 of his 31 home runs in front of the LA faithful. A little more home cooking and we could be witnessing history, again.It seems that every year we believe this is the year the Angels finally take a step forward behind Ohtani and Trout and make a push for the postseason, but every year they end up falling short.
