Aaron Judge returns to Yankees lineup after mystery ailment
NY Post
As promised, Aaron Judge is back in the Yankees lineup Friday night.
After sitting out the past two games with what manager Aaron Boone termed “lower-body soreness,” Judge was set to be back in right field and batting third as the Yankees opened a homestand by hosting the Tigers at Yankee Stadium. “Definitely keep an eye on him, but look forward to him getting back in there for us tonight, certainly,” Boone said.
SAN DIEGO — As you may have seen elsewhere in this newspaper (and also if you haven’t deleted me yet from your social media), I have a book coming out Tuesday called “The Bosses of The Bronx.” Much of it details the 37 years’ worth of antics, winning, losing, winning again and overall mania of George Steinbrenner’s time with the Yankees.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
