Judge has been adamant about his return, saying 'Definitely' when asked if he would be back before the season ends. Although he recently started feeling 'ten times better' than when he was first injured on June 2, he can only perform lower-body work like walking on a treadmill. He was shut down from riding a bike due to pressure on his ribs.
The Yankees are waiting for clearance from doctors, particularly Dr. Gregory Pearl, who is expected to provide an update on when Judge can begin baseball activities. Judge and the team want to ensure the fracture has healed 'all the way through' before risking any setbacks. The Yankees captain expressed frustration with the waiting process, stating 'It's been the worst' and emphasizing his desire to play for the team. slot-chickenroad.org
