The New York Yankees anticipate a boost in their lineup as their reigning MVP and superstar hitter, Aaron Judge, partakes in a five-inning simulated game in Tampa. Manager Aaron Boone disclosed that Judge’s training volume would likely increase in the coming days. Progressing on a day-by-day rehab basis, Judge appears to be on track to return to the field soon.
However, Judge clarified that his injury involves managing pain more than anything else, meaning he will not operate at full capacity for the rest of the season. Nonetheless, even at 75% of his usual performance, Judge remains the Yankees’ most potent offensive weapon.
