Yankees star Aaron Judge cleared for light activity and says he will return from injury this season

  • On Wednesday, New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone announced captain Aaron Judge has been cleared for light activity following encouraging medical scans on Tuesday.
  • Sidelined since early June with a stress fracture of his right rib, Judge remains on the 60-day injured list while continuing his recovery progression.
  • Before the injury, Judge hit.248 with 17 home runs and 38 RBI in 59 games; he must advance to taking swings before a return date is determined.
  • Positioned as the first American League Wild Card team, the Yankees hold a 64-50 record and sit 3 1/2 games behind the Tampa Bay Rays for the American League East lead.
  • Compounding roster challenges, stars Giancarlo Stanton and Cody Bellinger are also sidelined by injuries, forcing reliance on recent acquisitions like Luis Garcia Jr. to provide depth.
