Yankees’ Aaron Judge Faces Elbow Setback: Can Giancarlo Stanton Step Up or Will Risky Moves Define Their Season?
Saturday brought the New York Yankees a mixed bag of news that could’ve swung a lot worse. Their star slugger, Aaron Judge—the reigning American League MVP—was diagnosed with a flexor strain in his right arm, a detail that had every fan holding their breath. Up against the Blue Jays in the AL East, the Yankees find themselves trailing by six games, and losing Judge, even temporarily, feels like a heavy hit. Yet, surprisingly, Judge was absent from the lineup against Philadelphia without much prior notice. Manager Aaron Boone didn’t sugarcoat things: the seven-time All-Star felt elbow discomfort significant enough to warrant imaging during the game.
