Good news for New York Yankees fans: Aaron Judge is not requiring toe surgery after the season, according to Yankees manager Aaron Boone. Judge, the Yankees’ star right fielder, has been dealing with a sore right big toe since mid-August. He missed a few games in September due to the injury, but was able to return to the lineup and finish out the season.
The news that Judge will not require surgery is a relief for the Yankees, who have been dealing with numerous injuries this season. Judge has been a key part of the Yankees’ success in recent years, and his absence would have been a big blow to their playoff chances.
Judge’s injury was initially believed to be a bone bruise, but after further examination it was determined that he had a small fracture in his toe. This injury could have potentially required surgery, but the Yankees and Judge were able to manage it with rest and treatment.
Judge’s ability to avoid surgery is a testament to his toughness and dedication. He was able to play through the pain and finish out the season, and now he can rest and recover without having to go under the knife.
The Yankees are hoping that Judge will be ready to go for the start of next season. With Judge healthy, the Yankees should be one of the top contenders in the American League next year.
Injuries are always a concern for any team, but the Yankees can take comfort in knowing that Aaron Judge will not require toe surgery after the season. This is great news for Yankees fans, and hopefully Judge can stay healthy and continue to be a major contributor for the team in 2020.
