Yankees news: Who New York is promoting after placing Judge on IL

The New York Yankees placed star player Aaron Judge on the 10-day injured list on Saturday due to a right calf strain. This move came just after Judge returned from a long absence caused by a fractured rib. As a result, the team decided to call up Max Schuemann from their Triple-A affiliate in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to replace him on the roster.

Schuemann, a versatile player who can play both infield and outfield, has experience with the Yankees this season, appearing in 41 MLB games with a .194 batting average, two home runs, and eight RBIs in 87 plate appearances. His multi-positional abilities provide the Yankees with added options as they navigate the remainder of the regular season without Judge.

The team has not yet determined when Judge will return from his injury, but he will be eligible to be activated from the injured list for their final regular season game on September 27.
