“What’s the body comp. on this guy?” one veteran scout asked another one late afternoon at a Cape Cod League game.

“LeBron James,” answered another scout, partially joking, but mostly not.

There are some players that require a numerical roster on hand to definitively identify them the first time you see them on a field. At 6-foot-7, and over 250 pounds, Aaron Judge is not one of those players. His size and physical presence stand out the moment you see him stride into the box or shag a fly ball in the outfield. What will strike you next, however, is what an outstanding athlete with a wide array of skills on a baseball field he actually is. This isn’t your run of the mill, lumberjack build home run swinger. Aaron Judge can help a team in a large number of ways.
