Before Sunday’s game, Yankees manager Aaron Boone provided an injury update on star outfielder Aaron Judge. Boone indicated that Judge has been taking a few days off the batting tee and had a game off yesterday, but is expected to resume hitting today. Judge is currently running and performing strength exercises, and is responding well to his rehabilitation. There remains optimism that he will return this season.
Injury updates like this are closely watched by both teams and fans, as Judge’s presence would provide a significant boost to the Yankees’ lineup. While no timetable for his return has been officially announced, the latest notes suggest steady progress and continued confidence in a September or late-season return attempt, depending on how Judge responds to ramping up activity.
Key points to know for the series finale:
– The Yankees and Blue Jays split the first two games of the series, each winning one by narrow margins.
– The game on Sunday will determine the series winner, with both teams aiming to finish the set strongly.
– Aaron Judge’s rehabilitation is ongoing, with Boone signaling positive progress and continued recovery steps.
As the season progresses, updates on Judge and other roster developments will influence lineup construction and strategic decisions for both clubs. Fans will be watching closely to see if Judge can rejoin the lineup before the end of the season and what impact that could have on the pennant race and playoff push.
