Judge will miss the "next couple of days" due to a hip injury, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Judge exited in the middle of Thursday's game, but he noted that he had felt pain in his hip since earlier in the day. The issue is related to an awkward slide that occurred in Wednesday's contest. While it's unclear if a stint on the injured list will be required, Judge noted that he is not concerned about the issue being long term.

Judge was removed from Thursday's game against the Rangers for undisclosed reasons, Meredith Marakovits of YES Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

The removal was presumably due to an injury, though nothing has been confirmed by the team. Judge suffered an injury to each of his hands on Wednesday against the Twins, but he declared himself healthy after the game. It's unclear if Thursday's issue is related. Oswaldo Cabrera took over in right field in Judge's place.

Judge injured both hands on a stolen-base attempt during Wednesday's 12-6 win over the Twins but said after the contest he's "all good," Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports. He went 3-for-4 with two doubles, three RBI and one run while playing all nine innings as the Yankees' designated hitter.

EDGE Analysis

Judge's hands got jammed into the dirt on an awkward slide into third base in the top of the second inning, when he was tagged out on the steal attempt. He was checked out by the Yankees' training staff and was seen flexing his right hand multiple times in the dugout. However, Judge remained in the game and picked up a walk and a single in three more plate appearances. Manager Aaron Boone may use the hand injury as a reason to give the slugger a day off Thursday against the Rangers, but Judge otherwise looks like he'll be fine moving forward.

Judge went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and two walks Wednesday in a 3-2 extra-inning victory against the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Judge got the scoring started in the first inning, walloping a 412-foot, two-run homer off Griffin Canning. It was the sixth long ball of the season for the slugger, moving him into a tie for fifth place in the majors. Judge has cooled down a bit of late, going 3-for-21 (.143) over his past seven contests. However, he's worked six walks over that span, and two of his three hits have been homers.

Judge went 3-for-4 with two solo home runs in Sunday's 5-3 victory over the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Judge got the Yankees off to a strong start after singling to left field in the first inning and being quickly driven in by Giancarlo Stanton's RBI single. The 30-year-old then added to the lead by hitting two solo home runs, one in the third inning off Tyler Wells and the other in the eighth inning off Logan Gillaspie. This impressive display earned Judge the 28th multi-homer game of his career and the first of the season. With four homers and a .364/.436/.758 slash line through 33 at-bats, Judge is off to a strong start in his follow-up to last season's MVP campaign.

Judge went 1-for-3 with a walk, a run and a stolen base against the Phillies in a 4-2 victory Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Judge helped New York get off to a promising start in the win, singling to left field in the first inning, subsequently stealing second base and coming around to score the game's first run on a Gleyber Torres single. The theft was the first of the campaign for the slugger, who tallied a career-high 16 steals last season. Judge's power is undoubtedly his biggest asset, but his fantasy value will be all the more savory if he can reach double-digit steals again in 2023.

Judge went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 6-0 win against the Giants on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Judge kicked off the scoring for New York in the contest, knocking a 392-foot solo shot in the third inning. The long ball was his sixth hit of the season, two of which have left the park. Judge is off to a strong start following his 2022 MVP campaign, posting a .462/.462/.923 slash line and driving in four runs over his first three games.

Judge went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and two total RBI in the Yankees' season-opening defeat of the Giants on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

After setting a new single-season AL home run record in 2022, the $360 million slugger kicked off 2023 with a first-inning bomb to center off Giants ace Logan Webb. Judge then drove in Jose Trevino with an RBI single in the bottom of the seventh as New York cruised to a 5-0 victory on Opening Day in the Bronx. Judge will be hard pressed to top his 62 homers from last season, but he's picked up right where he left off in his MVP campaign.

Judge hasn't traveled with the Yankees for any of their Grapefruit League road games, but he's been getting live at-bats while the team is away, Randy Miller of NJ Advance Media reports.

EDGE Analysis

Judge's absence from spring road games isn't particularly unusual for a player of his tenure and status, though it has limited him to action in just nine of New York's 20 contests. The slugger has fared well when he has played, going 8-for-19 (.421) with four doubles, a home run, four RBI, four runs and a 4:3 BB:K. Judge has also been logging at-bats against the team's hurlers before home games and taking plenty of swings against high-velocity batting machines, so he's had ample opportunity to shake off any offseason rust. The Yankees captain won't go the entire spring without traveling -- he's expected to play in at least one road game during the upcoming weekend.
