New York Yankees’ Aaron Judge still battling new injury, update here

A lot can happen in two years. New York Yankee slugger Aaron Judge has taken a turn for the worst after being named the 2017 AL Rookie of the Year.

Judge has battled numerous injuries over the last two seasons, and he’s just making his way back from a stress fracture in a rib that occurred last September on a diving catch. However, after enjoying several weeks of positive progression and work, Judge was scratched from the lineup on Saturday evening due to a stiff neck.

The slugger was held out of baseball activities for a second straight day on Sunday to receive more treatment.
