Aaron Judge responds to personal hitting coach's comments ripping Yankees player development

The personal hitting coach to New York Yankees star Aaron Judge had quite the comment during Thursday's loss to the Cincinnati Reds.

Amid another loss to a team with a record below the .500 mark, Judge's hitting coach, Richard Schenck, blasted the Yankees on social media for their development of offensive players.

It came in response to a YES Network graphic that showed how the team fares when Judge produces and how they fare when he doesn't.

Of course, Judge was asked about this the following day Friday. And in true Judge fashion, he dodged the question like a former captain before him.

If this was anybody other than Judge — and maybe Juan Soto — this would be a non-story. But because it's Judge, the face of the franchise, we're talking about it.

Either way, the only way to quiet this kind of noise is to win ball games.
