## Resource

Aaron Judge’s uncertain recovery has changed the outlook for the Yankees. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber examine why Brian Cashman’s latest comments are so concerning, whether Judge can return as the same dominant hitter, and how Giancarlo Stanton’s injury adds even more pressure to a struggling offense. They debate how the Yankees should approach the trade deadline when no single player can replace Judge’s production. The conversation also explores which current hitters must improve, how Judge could still provide lineup protection if he returns at less than full strength, and why Ryan McMahon’s long at bat may have sparked a much needed offensive breakout.
