According to the latest voting results released earlier today, it seems Yankees’ right fielder Aaron Judge has moved into the number one outfield slot in the All-Star Game. He has passed Angels’ outfielder Mike Trout who recently hit the DL with a thumb injury. Not only has the young phenom received the most votes among outfielders, but among the entire American League as well.
