Given the choice, who would you rather have on your team — Aaron Judge or Shohei Ohtani?
This, of course, is the debate that’s captivated baseball for much of the last year. In 2022, Ohtani continued his otherworldly dominance on both sides of the ball while Judge was on his way to breaking the AL’s single-season home run record on the other side of the country. And while in many ways we’ve been comparing apples to oranges, one can still have a lot of fun marveling at these two generational talents together — three if you include Mike Trout, who has already established himself as one of the best players in MLB history.
Lucky for us, this week, the Angels and Yankees will square off at Yankee Stadium for the first time in 2023, giving us the perfect opportunity to do just that.
