DJ LeMahieu, Frankie Montas are Yankees’ October X-factors

Amid the expected media storm before, during, and after Aaron Judge’s 60th home run on Tuesday, the Yankees got some good injury news.

On the pitching side, Frankie Montas’ shoulder MRI came back clean and showed only inflammation. Even better is he expects to return before the postseason and isn’t concerned about further injury. He’s on the 15-day injured list and can come back Oct. 2 at the earliest, New York’s final home game of the season.

And on the hitting side, manager Aaron Boone provided a welcome update on DJ LeMahieu.
