Aaron Judge’s impressive season wasn’t enough to end the New York Yankees’ championship drought. The Yankees lost to Toronto in the AL Division Series, marking their 16th consecutive season without a title. Judge hit .500 in the postseason but couldn’t carry the team to victory. Despite winning his first AL batting title and being on a Hall of Fame track, Judge remains without postseason success. The Yankees’ bullpen and rotation faltered against Toronto, and the team faces potential roster changes. Gerrit Cole, recovering from Tommy John surgery, expects to return by May, but the Yankees need a bullpen rebuild.
