Aaron Judge Risks Becoming This Generation’s Don Mattingly

The Yankees can still win the World Series without Aaron Judge, and the idea that they have no chance without their captain gets forcefully rejected. The bigger question is what a championship drought could do to Judge’s legacy, especially if he becomes this generation’s Don Mattingly: beloved by Yankees fans, but remembered as a superstar who never won it all. Tiki Barber reflects on being grouped with New York greats such as Patrick Ewing, Mattingly and David Wright, while explaining why the Giants’ success after his retirement never bothered him. The conversation also tackles the stunning possibility of the Yankees winning a title while Judge remains sidelined, plus strange jerseys spotted at Disney and the challenge of attending both games of a split doubleheader.
