What are the projected season home run totals for Aaron Judge and Juan Soto?
One of the most interesting phenomena of the 2024 Major League season is the performance of Aaron Judge and Juan Soto leading the New York Yankees. Both players have hit a substantial number of home runs so far this season, and according to statistics, they are projected to hit more than forty home runs.
On Wednesday, both Aaron Judge and Juan Soto played crucial roles in helping the New York Yankees, also known as the Bronx Bombers, secure a victory against the Seattle Mariners. Judge hit a two-run homer in the first inning, while Soto contributed with a couple more hits, further solidifying their status in the eyes of New Yorkers. The game concluded with a final score of 7-3, with an additional home run by Verdugo.
Notably, according to Max Mannis of Talkin Baseball, both the captain of the “Evil Empire” and the Dominican outfielder are currently projected to hit over 40 home runs by the end of the season. This achievement would place them in the esteemed company of only two other baseball pairs who have accomplished this feat while playing for the Yankees: Babe Ruth-Lou Gehrig and Roger Maris-Mickey Mantle.
The performance of Juan Soto, who recently joined the “Yanks,” has been spectacular offensively and defensively. The fans at Yankee Stadium have recognized his enormous impact by chanting, “MVP, MVP, MVP!” This moment brought a smile to the face of the Dominican Republic when he arrived at the dugout.

After the game, Judge spoke to the press and acknowledged the contributions of players like Soto and Anthony Volpe, who have a hitting streak of 15 consecutive games. Judge said, “Those two guys have been leading this offense and setting the game’s tone. I’m just trying to go up and do my job.”
