I honestly think Aaron Judge's 208 strikeouts should be held against him more than they are. That's just an obscene number to me.

He also really, really sucked for 6 weeks. Altuve played elite baseball for 6 months.

Because valleys are infuriating and frustrating to the observer?

That's fair. I guess my question should have been "Why IS it more valuable" instead of "Why is it SEEN as more valuable".

Alluding to Yankees bullpen having advantage in close games, but come on. DK was fucking dealing. That was the Astros game to lose and we held on.
