Aaron Judge placed on Yankees injured list with calf strain
New York Yankees captain Aaron Judge has been placed on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to September 17, due to a right calf strain. The injury occurred during a game against the Minnesota Twins, where Judge initially felt tightness in his lower leg before being replaced in the sixth inning.
This setback comes shortly after Judge returned from a three-month absence caused by a right rib stress fracture. To fill his spot on the roster, the Yankees have recalled utility player Max Schuemann from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Manager Aaron Boone has declined to provide a specific timeline for Judge's return or confirm his availability for the upcoming postseason. While Judge expressed his desire to return for October baseball, the uncertainty regarding his recovery poses a significant challenge for the Yankees as they navigate the final stretch of the regular season and the American League East race.
