Aaron Judge is in his villain era and no one in baseball is safe.
One of MLB’s biggest stories over the last week has been the brewing beef between the New York Yankees and Toronto Blue Jays, stemming from Judge’s highly-scrutinized side-eye into his own dugout before clobbering a home run. The Blue Jays’ broadcast implied Judge was cheating — the Yankees star had some “choice words” to say about it — and things kind of exploded from there.
And now, Judge is not-so-subtly taking shots at the Blue Jays and the whole side-eye debacle with his new hit celebration. On Wednesday, after a two-out single in the top of the third against Toronto, Judge proceeded to put his hand over his eyes while gesturing with his other hand. A salt shaker, perhaps?

That is definitely a top-tier troll from Judge right there.
