Come next week, it will mark a full month since Aaron Judge returned from the injured list due to the flexor strain in his right arm. The New York Yankees activated him on Aug. 5 after he spent the minimum 10 days on the shelf.
It's now been 21 games, and Judge has not played defense. The only significant update we've really gotten since he's returned were the conflicting statements echoed by manager Aaron Boone and Judge. Boone said we likely wouldn't see Judge back to throwing like he normally does this year, and Judge responded that he wasn't sure why Boone would say that since his manager hasn't seen him throw over the course of his rehab.
