On today's episode, we're looking back at the historic season Aaron Judge had and putting it into proper context. Then, we try and identify other hitters with similar traits, in both the minors and majors, that could potentially take a leap into that MVP stratosphere. Prospects discussed: SS Oneil Cruz of the Pittsburgh Pirates, SS Elly de la Cruz of the Cincinnati Reds, OFs Spencer Jones and Anthony Garcia of the New York Yankees, and (briefly) Los Angeles Dodgers OF Andy Pages, Toronto Blue Jays 3B Orelvis Martinez, and St. Louis Cardinals 3B/OF Jordan Walker. MLB players mentioned include Kansas City Royals 1B Vinnie Pasquantino, Houston Astros OF Yordan Alvarez, Philadelphia Phillies slugger Kyle Schwarber, New York Mets 1B Pete Alonso, and Atlanta Braves OF Ronald Acuna.
