Aaron Judge is our top-projected batter for Thursday.

The slugger has opened the season with a pair of extra-base hits, five runs and three RBIs through six games. Judge was one of the best hitters in baseball last year, ranking second in both wOBA (.430) and ISO (.343) among qualifying players.

His numbers didn't fall off in righty-righty matchups, either, as he crushed right-handed pitchers for a .440 wOBA and .364 ISO on a 45.1% hard-hit and 11.7% soft-hit rate. Baltimore righty Andrew Cashner posted an ugly 5.52 SIERA over 28 starts last season, and he's not likely to do much to slow down Judge.
