Very few people have posted an OPS+ over 200 and Judge was at 223. During his 62 homer season his OPS+ was also 210.

Judge has had the two monster seasons (and possibly another one going now) but the way I was thinking of it was, say you're starting a franchise right now: you have the choice between Judge and Ohtani, who are you taking? I'm taking Ohtani even without the pitching...more versatile, more consistently available and several years younger.
It's certainly debatable though, just my preference
