Aaron Judge Expected to Return to Yankees Lineup Soon

Aaron Judge's injury has sparked discussions about its impact on both the Yankees and fantasy baseball teams. Manager Aaron Boone is optimistic about Judge's quick return, suggesting he could be back in the lineup as a designated hitter soon. This would allow Judge to contribute offensively while avoiding further strain on his elbow from throwing.

For fantasy baseball managers, the decision of whether to keep or drop Judge is a pressing one. Despite the injury, Judge remains a top-scoring hitter, but the uncertainty surrounding his recovery adds complexity. Historically, top-scoring hitters missing significant time after the All-Star break is rare, adding to the unique nature of Judge's situation.

Data suggests that even a brief absence from Judge could significantly impact fantasy teams, highlighting his value. The Yankees have made acquisitions to offset Judge's absence, but his return is highly anticipated.

The Yankees hope to activate Judge on Tuesday or Wednesday against the Rangers.

He has a flexor strain in his right elbow.

Initially, Judge will serve as a designated hitter to avoid further strain on his elbow.
