I agree. I don't think he's using anything. He's not even that "big" for his size (6'7") and I believe they said he's actually a little slimmer/lighter than he was a few years ago.

Now why did I think this thread was going to be about an NYC Judge who holds the highest record in the country of imprisoning people lol

Lol....I agree with this

American League, National League... yada yada.. it's the same stuff. The record is 62.

If Aaron Judge did steroids like Sosa, McGwire, and Bonds, he would have hit 100 homers this year

Last year the Braves were probably the worst team in the playoffs and they won the world series.

Mets have a tough road to the World Series.

Have to beat the Padres and the Dodgers to get to the NLCS.

If they pull it off, they'll earn it!

I highly doubt that. He has plenty of natural strength and was healthy this year.

There are PEDs that have nothing to do with muscle mass. The "steroid era" was extremely unsophisticated. They were literally just pumping test.

A-Rod admittedly did steroids and he never hit more than 60 HRs. So to hit more than 60 it is really difficult regardless you did juice or not. It was estimated that 30% of MLB players in the 2000s was doing steroids yet not that many hit more than 30-40. So I still believe Sosa and McGwire deserves recognition. Judge hitting 62 is still an amazing feat just that I wouldn't discount Bonds, Sosa, McGwuire.

Sosa had 66. McGwire had 70. Bonds 73.

They were determined to be CHEATING with performance enhancing drugs and were thus stricken from the record books.
