When asked about the conversation Boone had with Doctor Armand regarding the diagnosis, he replied, “Yeah, so he’s going to go on the IL. He’s got a contusion and a sprain of the ligament. So he had a PRP shot tonight, and then I mean, the biggest thing now is, you know, trying to get the swelling out of there.”

Regarding the recovery timeline, Boone shared, “Some improvements today, but, you know, now we just see where we are in the coming weeks and or days, and then you know week.” Though the reports suggest there is no breaker or fracture in Aaron Judge’s toe, fans are still not happy with the injury reports.

Judge’s IL return disheartens the Yankees fans!

With the Yankees stuck in the third position in the AL East, their fans want them to get maximum wins. They think that Judge’s absence can hamper their potential winning chances. Fans also said that the management and even the player could have done better to avoid this situation. Here are a few of the reactions on the same.

Judge is very fragile, no Ironman like Lou Gehrig, always something to injure himself. Right now, it's not a good time to be Judge less.
