Yankees’ Aaron Judge injury latest: How he feels

Yankees star Aaron Judge continues the rehab of his fractured right wrist.

NEW YORK — Yankees slugger Aaron Judge still feels pain in his fractured right wrist, he told reporters following Sunday’s 10-2 win over the Blue Jays at Yankee Stadium.

“Oh, yeah, it’s still healing. It’s still fractured,” he said. “So, it’s still a little bit of pain in there. That’s what we’re just trying to get past right now. So, hopefully here, I think it usually takes four to six weeks for stuff like that to heal, so, waiting for those six weeks.”

The Yankees set a three-week timetable for Judge’s return when a fastball bashed his hand and he went on the disabled list July 27. 

That, however, was contingent on Judge being able to play through the pain in the wrist.

While Judge was able to run the bases and perform defensive drills Sunday, he still hasn’t been able to swing a bat. 

Manager Aaron Boone has described the pain that Judge was trying to get past as at the end of the range of motion of the wrist.

“Today was a low-key day for him,” Boone said Sunday.

The Yankees are off Monday. They start a two-game set in Miami on Tuesday.

“We’ll just see where (Judge) is (Tuesday),” Boone said, referring to Judge’s progress.

The Yankees could use Judge back as soon as possible.

Not only are they missing Gary Sanchez, who’s on the disabled list with a right groin strain, but they may miss Didi Gregorius for a while. The shortstop suffered a “pretty bad” heel bruise in Sunday’s victory during a collision at first base.
