Report: Yankees Eyeing Target Return Date for Aaron Judge

With the stretch run looming, the Yankees are getting some much-needed assistance.

New York plans to activate right fielder Aaron Judge from the 10-day injured list for Friday evening’s series opener against the Orioles, according to a Wednesday afternoon report from Joel Sherman of The New York Post.

Judge, who clubbed 62 home runs a year ago to set a new American League record, has not played since June 3. During a 6–3 Yankees victory over the Dodgers, Judge collided with the outfield wall in Dodger Stadium and sprained his right big toe.
