However, rare reps at first base would help the Yankees keep Judge's bat in the lineup while playing a less taxing position than his traditional spot in right field. The reigning AL MVP set an AL record with 62 home runs last season while easily pacing all of baseball with an 11.4 fWAR in the process.
