2024 Aaron Judge odds: Will Yankees slugger hit 60 home runs?

The conversation about Aaron Judge making home run history has started again.

After missing 56 games in 2023 due mainly to a toe injury, the Yankees superstar is raking in 2024. He has 26 home runs through 74 games, putting him on pace to hit 56 this season, a number that would represent the second-highest single-season total of his career.

Of course, he famously hit an American League record 62 home runs back in 2022, a total that many recognize as the all-time record, depending on how you feel about Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa and Mark McGwire.
