New York Yanke’s placed Aaron judge on the 10-day wounded list on Sunday with a real flexor tribe when fear was reassured by speculation that the injury could have been more severe.
An MRI showed that Judge had no acute damage to his ulnar security ties, which would probably have required Tommy John operation and an extended stay at IL. He missed his second season match as the team lost against Philadelphia Phillies.

He had a platelet-rich plasma injection and he could return to action anywhere from 10 to 14 days.
“You’ll never go in the tube. It’s never fun. You don’t know what will show up,” said Judge. “That’s why I pushed kind of much of that imaging and similar things, because if I don’t know what’s going on, it can’t hurt you, I assume.”
Yankee’s Manager Aaron Boone breathed a sigh of relief.
“All in all, we got good news today,” he said. “I think we all kind of feared the worst.”
Judge admitted to Boone on Friday that he had had trouble throwing past 60 feet.

“We’re going up against a Phillies team, they can hit the ball over the park. I just didn’t want to put our jugs in danger, just not being able to get up and play for them,” he said.
The guard decision was reluctant to Saturday, and Yankees traded for Amed Rosario, which the team acquired in an agreement with Washington Nationals, to take its place.
Judge put together another MVP-like season. He won the American League MVP last season and in 2022.
This year, Judge Majors leads in the Batting average (.342), base percentage (.449), generation percentage (.711), ops (1,160) and hits (129). He has 37 homemade and 85 RBI.
