    If you have any interest in the New York Yankees this season, you've probably asked the question: "When is Aaron Judge up?"

    Judge's at-bats have become mini-events inside the game. While his second half hasn't matched his first, the attention hasn't waned. The Yankees' television ratings have gone up overall -- and, at times, have gone down after Judge has finished hitting.

    In a mundane win over the Tigers on July 31, the Yankees' TV network, YES, posted its highest single-game rating since Derek Jeter's final home game in 2014. The ratings peaked during the seventh inning, when, probably not coincidentally, Aaron Judge stepped to the plate.

    Jose Canseco takes to Twitter to talk smack about Aaron Judge

    Jose Canseco: Still talking, after all these years.

    The former big-leaguer and longtime baseball pariah took to Twitter Thursday to seemingly bemoan all the attention New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge is being paid over his rapid ascension to being among preeminent power hitters in Major League Baseball.

    Making matter worse, Canseco, obviously among the most powerful home-run hitters of his era — ahem — claimed in his mini-Twitter tirade that he could still out-slug the 25-year-old Yankees rookie, even at the advanced age of 53.

    Here are the rundown of tweets where Canseco makes his arguably dubious claims in a questionably redundant manner.

    Canseco has always had a big mouth

    ...Judge has not been very impressive since the ASB.
