Yankees not ruling any Aaron Judge return scenario out with rehab all positive
The Yankees have not committed to Judge needing a rehab assignment before he is activated off the injured list.
It is possible that he could just continue to get at-bats and test his toe in game-like actions during simulated games at the Yankees’ complex until both sides determine he is ready to rejoin the roster.“I think everything’s in play,” manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday. “So far, it seems like today was another positive day. We’ll see how it goes [Wednesday]. I think we’re leaving everything on the table.
“It’s get through today and tomorrow,” Boone said. “Hopefully we can ramp up and it’s a couple innings more. I don’t think he had any action in the field today. We’ll try to make sure there’s action in play or script some things a little more so not only is he getting the volume of being out there for an hour, two hours and getting the live at-bats, but trying to replicate things that would come up in a game as much as you can. And then we’ll just see.
“It’s going to be, how does he tolerate moving around the field, moving on the bases, having those at-bats where you gotta hold your swing and things like that,” Boone said. “So [things] where you’re a little off-script and not just taking BP or whatever. Keeps moving in a good direction. The fact that we’re at this point is a positive.”
