Yankees’ Aaron Boone Provides Giancarlo Stanton Update After Aaron Judge Injury originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The New York Yankees are one of the best teams in the AL, but the absence of Aaron Judge changes the equation. The 33-year-old is on the 10-day IL with a flexor strain in his right elbow, which puts the Yankees in a bind.

One day after Aaron Judge started his hitting progression, the Yankees superstar took another step in his recovery from a right elbow flexor strain.

The Yankees, who entered Tuesday with a 57-49 record and a 5½-game deficit in the American League East, have attempted to help offset Judge's absence by acquiring two new hitters over the last few days: third baseman Ryan McMahon and utility infielder Amed Rosario.
