MLB insider reveals Yankees have 'no idea' if Aaron Judge will play again in 2026
This is a very concerning update for the Yankees and Aaron Judge.
The New York Yankees currently have no definitive plan regarding the participation of their star player, Aaron Judge, in the remainder of the 2026 MLB season. According to an MLB insider report by Bob Nightengale of USA Today, the Yankees are uncertain if Judge will play again this season. He has already missed significant time due to injuries, including a rib issue in the past and a calf strain in recent weeks.
His return to the team in August was short-lived as he was sidelined again due to a right calf strain, which could potentially sideline him for the rest of the season. The Yankees, who have already clinched a postseason spot, now face the challenge of planning their strategy without the certainty of Judge's availability, especially as the playoffs approach.
