I'm enjoying Judge's emergence, however, on the "Avoid Ks", he's already at 99 Ks for the real 2017 season before the halfway point and is projected to around 200 Ks this season. That doesn't strike me as in the "green" zone.

While I agree on the personality comments in general, other than a few leader types who are represented in the game like Napoli or Granderson, mostly personality seems like a random assignment in game.

Final point. As we think about his progression, I'll note that he's not a "young" rookie at 25 years old, meaning the next few season are probably his prime and so it's a perfectly reasonable scenario to me that he is in fact somewhere near as good as he seems (with some regression expected as the league catches up to him); however, it's equally reasonable to assume that he's near his peak and that it's not like he will necessarily be much better than this (if that's even possible). Either way, it will be fun to watch him play and see how it turns out both in the real world and the OOTP ones!
