The Yankees right fielder will miss significant time; his return date remains unclear.
Aaron Judge sustained a stress fracture in his rib and will miss significant time, the Yankees announced. Judge is in his 11th season and carries a 2026 line of 32 GP, 114 AB, 27 R, 30 H, 5 2B, 12 HR, 21 RBI. The team said he is expected to play again this season, but no timeline for his return has been provided.
Judge's absence removes New York's primary right-field production during the midseason stretch, when roster depth and All-Star and trade-deadline context begin to shape pennant races.
