## Resource

Aaron Judge’s return from a lingering rib injury has Yankees management on high alert, carefully managing his workload to avoid setbacks. After missing significant time and struggling offensively since coming back — just 3-for-10 with no homers or RBIs — the team is considering benching him Sunday or Monday, possibly shifting him to DH to preserve his health. Manager Aaron Boone’s cautious approach reflects a bigger picture: keeping Judge fresh for the long haul, even if it means skipping games now. This isn’t new — he already got a day off earlier this week — but the priority remains clear: protect the star slugger’s body over short-term stats.
