Not good but avoided worst case scenario.

Aaron Judge has been diagnosed with a stress fracture of the first rib on his right side, the Yankees announced on Thursday. This will require a period of rest and limited activity. He will be reimaged in approximately four to six weeks to determine level of healing and appropriate next steps.

The specialist looking at Aaron Judge’s imaging is Dr. Gregory Pearl in Dallas.

Pearl has over three decades of experience and “has made significant contributions to vascular surgery education and clinical practice, particularly in complex vascular procedures and thoracic outlet syndrome management in high-performance athletes.”

This was on 5/3. Aaron Judge through 5/3 (150 PA): • .264/.403/.628 • 182 wRC+ • 13 HR • .454 xwOBA Aaron Judge since 5/4 (111 PA): • .226/.336/.409 • 105 wRC+ • 4 HR • .362 xwOBA Obviously sucks that he’s hurt and hope he’s back asap but I’m actually relieved by this.
