Summary
Aaron Judge is making major strides in his rehab, hitting live batting practice at Petco Park and already cleared for most baseball activities — now just needing to face live pitching. Manager Aaron Boone says Judge’s work behind the scenes has been extensive, and while Judge hopes to skip a rehab assignment and return to the Yankees ASAP — especially with the AL East race heating up — the final call rests with Boone. He joked about wanting to be back by June 1st, but admits frustration over the long layoff, comparing it to an extended offseason. With all bases covered except facing live pitching, Judge is ramping up his workload and feels ready to rejoin the lineup soon — possibly even during their upcoming homestand starting next Tuesday.
