Yankees' Aaron Judge Hopes To Avoid Rehab Assignment
The New York Yankees are getting closer to getting Aaron Judge back in the lineup
New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge, sidelined with a fractured rib, is optimistic about returning to the team's lineup soon without a rehab assignment. Judge, who missed 43 games in 2023, has been practicing his swings and working on his timing. He hopes to avoid a rehab stint as he believes it would be a waste of at-bats and valuable game time.
Judge, a three-time MVP, is confident in his ability to navigate the transition back to full game action. His defense might be a different story, but his offensive skills are crucial to the Yankees' offense.
