Aaron Judge said that a CT scan taken Friday showed “slight improvement” in the stress fracture of his first right rib, and the Yankees slugger expects to have his progress re-evaluated in another two weeks.

Judge also revealed that a previously unreported pneumothorax issue has been resolved. The lung issue can occur as a result of a blunt or penetrating chest injury, such as a diving catch in the outfield.

“The pneumothorax came back completely gone, which is a good thing—I can fly if I need to go home,” Judge said.
