There's a reason for this.
Hey, you know what would be cool?
If Aaron Judge, who has 34 home runs to lead MLB in the category, would swing his mighty bat in the 2024 Home Run Derby on Monday.
But the New York Yankees slugger isn’t on the list of competitors, and the same goes for his National League counterpart, Shohei Ohtani.
Let’s concentrate on Judge, though. Why isn’t he in?
“There’s no need this year,” Judge told the New York Post.
“I’m not done with it,’’ he added. “Once it’s back in New York, I’ll be there.”
That means it might be a while before we see him in the Home Run Derby.
