Judge revealed on Friday that in addition to a stress fracture in his right rib, the outfielder was dealing with a pneumothorax, or a collapsed lung. Judge will have another CT scan in two weeks to evaluate the healing of his rib, and the lung issue is thought to be resolved.

“It’s just making sure that was healed, because that’s when you have the concerns of flying,” Boone said. “He’s healed in that regard and hopefully now, obviously again this is hopefully a time where he can get that proper rest to allow that rib to heal properly.
