On Tuesday, the New York Yankees will open up a three-game series with the Boston Red Sox in the Bronx.
Ahead of the Wild Card round, the Yankees have to make a decision on Aaron Judge.
He last appeared in a game on September 16.
MLB.com wrote (on September 28): “Has a “moderate grade” strain of his right soleus muscle and may not be active for AL Wild Card Series. Judge said he intends to be active for postseason. Had hit and thrown indoors as of Sept. 28, including running on anti-gravity treadmill. Scheduled to participate in on-field workout Sept. 28.”

Looking At Judge

Judge is in the middle of his 11th season in the MLB (all with the Yankees).
He has won the MVP award in three out of the last four seasons.
That said, Judge is still missing a World Series title (at 34).

Judge has appeared in 66 games during the 2026 season.
He batted .241 with 57 hits, 18 home runs, 41 RBIs, 45 runs and five stolen bases.

The Yankees had a strong regular season.
They went 93-68 in 161 games, which had them as the second-place team in the American League East.
