Gary Sanchez is hitting .210 this year.
Aaron Judge hit 52 (not 59) homers in a year a record number of homers were hit because the ball is juiced.
Brett Gardner hit .264 last year with 21 HR, hardly remarkable and probably below average if anything.
Gleybar Torres? Yeah, rookies never have hot streaks (Rhys Hoskins, Clay Bellinger last year).

You grasped at some straws but you missed badly. You've got to have better arguments than that, right?
