Judge Activated by Yankees, Could Return Tuesday Versus Rockies

Aaron Judge was activated from the injured list and could return to the Yankees as soon as Tuesday against the Colorado Rockies after taking live batting practice Monday. The star slugger had been out since late May with a rib injury, and coach/manager Aaron Boone indicated they’ll see if he’s ready for action. Judge had been optimistic about his timeline and noted it took longer than hoped, but his comeback comes as the Yankees sit 2nd in the AL East and 8.5 games up in the wild-card race. Before the injury, he was hitting .248 with 17 homers, 38 RBIs, 43 runs and a .907 OPS in 59 games.

Aaron Judge’s rib injury may be more serious than initially stated, as he has undergone MRI and CT scans and was referred to a Dallas vascular/thoracic specialist. Swelling is complicating the diagnosis, and a potential thoracic outlet syndrome could sideline him for the season. The Yankees, currently a half-game behind the Rays in the AL East, hinge on Judge’s production (.248/.375/.533 with 17 HR and 38 RBI) as Ben Rice has stepped up; with Judge not on the injured list yet, the team faces a critical decision and awaits further expert guidance that could reshape their 2026 outlook.
