Episode Details

Aaron Judge is inching closer to returning this season after a broken rib, cleared for light activity including running and upper-body work — though full healing isn’t there yet. He’s confident he’ll be back on the field soon, with Yankees GM Brian Cashman calling it “a pretty high likelihood.” A follow-up scan is still needed before he can resume hitting and throwing, but Wednesday’s workout marked a major milestone. For a team struggling offensively without him, his return is urgent — with just 52 days left in the season. Meanwhile, pitcher Clarke Schmidt looks poised to return after a bullpen session cut short by cramping, and Cody Bellinger took his first field batting practice since hamstring strain, trending positively despite lingering discomfort. All three are vital pieces the Yankees desperately need back to turn things around.
