Judge is a different animal.
He's as strong or stronger than Frank Thomas, and he moves like a Darryl Strawberry or a Dave Winfield, so he's able to play in the outfield.
As a 6'9" first baseman, the only thing I happened to be able to do at a high level, was hit.
I don't buy the whole, "bigger swing mechanics = too much strike-zone, and/or not enough reaction time" theory.
very tall baseball players = small sample
very tall baseball players, with competence at hitting = smaller yet
very tall baseball players with competence at hitting, who haven't committed to basketball for college education/hoop dreams = even smaller
very tall baseball players with competence at hitting, who haven't committed to basketball for college education/hoop dreams, AND haven't been herded over to the pitcher's mound = tiny sample
