Juan Soto may no longer be hitting in front of \u201cthe best hitter in baseball,\u201d but \u201cthe best hitter in baseball\u201d believes the $765 million man will be just fine.<\/p>\n
A day after Soto explained to The Post\u2019s Mike Puma that pitchers are attacking him differently this season because he is no longer batting in front of Aaron Judge, the comments made their way back to the Yankees\u2019 two-time AL MVP. <\/p>\n
Judge said he was not going to get into a back-and-forth with Soto on the matter, but downplayed his own part in it.<\/p>\n
\u201c[Soto has] got probably one of the best hitters in the game behind him right now with what [Pete] Alonso\u2019s doing,\u201d Judge said Tuesday at Yankee Stadium. \u201cIt\u2019s been fun to watch. He\u2019s hitting close to .400 [.345 entering Tuesday], driving the ball all over the field, driving guys in. They\u2019re going to be just fine.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve seen Soto now watching the league for so many years and then getting a chance to see him up close \u2014 you can look at what I did last April for an example. Just keep being himself and he\u2019s going to be just fine.\u201d<\/p>\n
After having arguably the best season of his accomplished career last year with the Yankees, Soto entered Tuesday batting .250 with two home runs and an .829 OPS in just 16 games with the Mets. <\/p>\n
He indicated he has gotten fewer pitches to hit than he did last season, when pitchers had to pick their poison between the most fearsome Nos. 2 and 3 hitters in the game in Soto and Judge.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s definitely different,\u201d Soto told The Post on Monday. \u201cI had the best hitter in baseball hitting behind me. I was getting more attacked and more pitches in the strike zone, less intentional walks and things like that. I was pitched differently last year.\u201d<\/p>\n
Judge, as he referenced, had his own slow start last April while hitting behind Soto, batting .207 with six home runs and a .754 OPS through 31 games entering May before catching fire for his second MVP season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
