New York placed Judge on the 10-day injured list Wednesday, retroactive to June 4, with a right big toe sprain.
EDGE Analysis
As previously announced by manager Aaron Boone, Judge will head to the injured list with his toe sprain and miss at least a week of action. The outfielder will be eligible to return next Wednesday, June 14, should he prove ready. The Yankees have selected the contract of Billy McKinney from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to replace Judge on the roster.

X-rays revealed Tuesday that there's no break or fracture of Judge's big right toe, but a sprain will cause him to be placed on the 10-day injured list before Wednesday's game against the White Sox, Bob Klapisch of The New York Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Judge was out of the lineup again Tuesday against the White Sox after crashing into a wall Saturday during a victory over the Dodgers. The 2022 MVP will miss at least a week while recovering, and there's no timetable for his return. Judge has been outstanding again in 2023 with a 1.078 OPS and 19 homers over 49 games, and the Yankees along with fantasy GMs won't have his right-handed bat in their lineup until the middle of June at the earliest.

Judge (toe) will not be in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the White Sox, Yankees manager Aaron Boone said in an interview on the Talkin' Yanks podcast.
EDGE Analysis
That Judge won't be playing Tuesday doesn't come as a surprise. What remains in question is whether he will need a stint on the injured list for his right toe injury. Boone expects to know the results of the testing on Judge's toe later Tuesday. The star outfielder was injured when he crashed into the outfield wall during Saturday's win over the Dodgers.

Judge (toe) will undergo additional testing Monday, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Judge sustained a toe injury when he crashed into the wall during Saturday's game against the Dodgers, and he sat out Sunday's series finale. He'll be able to rest during the team's scheduled day off Monday, but he isn't yet sure whether his toe is broken, which would likely require a trip for him to the injured list. A better idea of his status should come into focus once the results of his tests are known.

Judge isn't in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers due to a right foot injury, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 31-year-old suffered the injury during Saturday's contest when he crashed into the bullpen gate in right field while making a catch. Judge remained in the game and said after the contest he was feeling fine, but he's apparently dealing with some soreness in his foot. The Yankees have a team day off Monday, so Judge will have two consecutive days to recover ahead of Tuesday's series opener versus the White Sox.

Judge is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Judge crashed through the right-field bullpen gate while making a catch Saturday and will receive Sunday off as the Yankees close out their road trip in Los Angeles. The reigning AL MVP said he was fine after the game, so manager Aaron Boone could simply be taking advantage of Monday's scheduled off day in order to get Judge two straight days of rest.

Judge went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Saturday in a 6-3 victory versus the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Judge shined in the nationally televised game, launching a solo shot to left field in the sixth inning and stalling what had the makings of a Dodgers rally by robbing J.D. Martinez of a certain extra-base hit with a spectacular catch in the eighth. Judge crashed through the right-field gate on the play, but he appeared to be no worse for the wear, saying after the contest, "We're feeling good. I think the fence got most of it," per Erik Boland of Newsday. Judge has five homers over his past six games and is up to an AL-leading 19 long balls on the campaign despite a stint on the injured list in early May.

Judge went 1-for-3 with a solo homer, two walks and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Judge tacked on to the Yankees' lead with a solo blast to left center to put his team up 8-2. He now has four homers over his last three games and has six RBI over that span. Judge is now standing alone at second in the majors with 18 home runs through 46 games, which is the same amount he had through 46 games last season as well. The 31-year-old is on pace for another historic season and is slashing .303/413/691 with 39 RBI, 41 runs and a 33:59 BB:K to go with a league-leading 1.104 OPS across 201 plate appearances.

Judge went 3-for-4 with one double, two home runs, three RBI and an additional run in Monday's 10-4 victory over the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
For good measure, he also stole a homer from Teoscar Hernandez late in the game with a leaping grab at the wall. Judge now has 17 long balls on the year, tied for second in MLB. The superstar's 1.087 OPS is also tops in baseball, and he's hitting .357 with 11 homers since coming back from injury May 9.

Judge went 2-for-4 with a homer, two RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's win over San Diego.
EDGE Analysis
Judge got the Yankees on the board Sunday with a solo shot off Yu Darvish in the bottom of the first inning before adding a second RBI on a base hit in the third. In 18 games this month, Judge is batting .333 with nine home runs and an outstanding 1.261 OPS. The reigning MVP is now slashing .291/.398/.633 with 15 homers, 36 runs scored and 35 RBI through 158 plate appearances this season.
