Aaron Judge and Dodgers Catcher Will Smith Move to Injured Lists

The New York Yankees announced that outfielder Aaron Judge will be placed on the 60‑day injured list, ending his season after a lingering injury. The move frees a roster spot, and the club signed right‑hander Brady Hanner, assigning him to Triple‑A Scranton.

The Los Angeles Dodgers reported that catcher Will Smith remains on the injured list because of a neck problem. Manager Dave Roberts said, “At this point we don’t know what form his return will take,” and local papers have suggested the Dodgers consider acquiring veteran catcher Ben Roethlisberger as a possible solution for the upcoming playoff stretch.
