The New York Yankees have been eagerly awaiting the return of their star player, Aaron Judge, and the wait is finally over. Judge was activated from the injured list on Monday, just in time for the Yankees’ series against the Baltimore Orioles.
Judge had been out since April 20th due to a strained left oblique. He had been rehabbing with the Yankees’ Triple-A affiliate, the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders, and was able to make it back to the big leagues in time for the series against the Orioles.
The Yankees are thrilled to have Judge back in the lineup as he is one of their most important players. He is a two-time All-Star and was the runner-up for the 2017 American League MVP award. In his career, Judge has hit .273 with 140 home runs and 393 RBIs.
The Yankees are hoping that Judge can help them get back on track as they have struggled recently. They are currently in second place in the AL East, two games behind the Tampa Bay Rays.
Judge’s return should provide a boost to the Yankees’ lineup as he is one of their most powerful hitters. He is also a great defensive player and his presence in the outfield will help solidify the team’s defense.
The Yankees will be looking to get back on track with Judge back in the lineup and they will be hoping that he can help them take the series against the Orioles. It will be exciting to see what Judge can do as he returns from injury and it will be interesting to see how he impacts the Yankees’ season.
