Aaron Judge has just reached 24 home runs in 59 games this season, which marks a massive trend with which he will get a bestial record in the history of the Yankees and the MLB, which only a select few like Babe Ruth and Mickey Mantle reached with the Yankees.

So, what’s next?

That is a question that many Yankees fans are asking, as Judge has been on an absolute tear lately. While it is certainly possible that Judge could reach the record, it is by no means a sure thing. Several features will come into play, including the quality of pitching he faces, the weather, and his health.

It’s more likely that Judge will surpass Bonds’ record. In just 59 games, he has already hit 24 home runs. The Yankees player is showing no signs of slowing down. If he keeps up this pace, he could quickly end up switching over 70 home runs by the end of the season.

So, what’s the likelihood that Judge breaks Bonds’ record? Let’s look at some factors that will come into play.

Is Barry Bonds’ record unbeatable?
