Judge went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Game 2 of Thursday's doubleheader against Houston.

EDGE Analysis

Judge batted third and drew a walk in addition to taking a hit-by-pitch over four plate appearances in the matinee, then moved up to the leadoff spot for the nightcap. He was the team's designated hitter in both contests, and his lone hit in the twin bill was a 410-foot, three-run blast in the ninth inning of Game 2. Judge leads the majors with 34 long balls on the campaign and could challenge the career-high 52 homers he slugged in 2017.

Judge went 3-for-3 with a pair of home runs, a walk, three total runs and three total RBI in a 14-1 victory against Boston on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Judge was somewhat overshadowed in the contest by teammate Matt Carpenter, who hit two homers of his own and drove in seven runs. Nonetheless, it was a huge game by Judge, who swatted a solo homer in the fifth inning and a two-run shot in the sixth. The slugger has gone deep three times in his past three games and leads the majors with 33 long balls on the season.

Judge went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional run and a walk in Thursday's extra-inning loss to the Reds.

EDGE Analysis

Judge slugged a solo homer to center field that was estimated to travel 435 feet in the eighth inning. The long ball was his 31st of the campaign -- the most in the majors. Judge hit 11 homers in June but has slowed down a bit with two through 11 contests in July.

Judge is out of the lineup Tuesday versus Cincinnati.

EDGE Analysis

It's presumably just a regular day of rest for Judge, who will be heading to Los Angeles for the All-Star Game instead of getting next week off. The star outfielder, who's slugging .474 in his last 10 games, should return to action Wednesday. Aaron Hicks plays center field in Tuesday's series opener.

Judge (lower body) will return to action as expected Friday against the Red Sox, batting second and serving as the designated hitter, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Judge missed Thursday's series opener due to lower-body soreness, but the issue never seemed to be a particularly serious one. The fact that he'll be limited to DH duties may suggest that he's not quite 100 percent healthy, but he's evidently healthy enough to hit.

Judge (soreness) is expected to be back in the lineup Friday against the Red Sox, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Judge was held out of the lineup Thursday due to lower-body soreness. The issue doesn't look to be serious as his absence is likely to be limited to one game.

Judge is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Red Sox due to lower-body soreness, though manager Aaron Boone expects the outfielder to be available to pinch hit, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

Judge went 3-for-4 with a grand slam, a double and a stolen base Wednesday to bust out of a 5-for-39 slump, but he'll receive Thursday off due to some soreness. It doesn't appear to be a serious issue, so the 30-year-old is likely to be back in the lineup within a day or two.

Judge is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Judge isn't known to be nursing an injury, but since he most recently received a maintenance day in Sunday's 2-0 loss to the Guardians, he wouldn't seem to be a prime candidate to get a breather Thursday. Manager Aaron Boone should shed more light on the situation later Thursday, but Matt Carpenter will benefit from a third consecutive start while Judge takes a seat. The American League MVP candidate bolstered his credentials Wednesday, when he went 3-for-4 with a double and his MLB-best 30th home run while driving in four runs in the Yankees' 16-0 rout of the Pirates.

Judge went 3-for-4 with a grand slam and a steal in Wednesday's victory over the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

Judge knocked in Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Kyle Higashioka and DJ LeMahieu on his eighth-inning grand slam, which was his league-leading 30th home run. The four-RBI game gives him 64 on the season, good for fourth most in baseball. The outfielder is 5-for-16 in July for a .313/.450/.625 slash line and has raised his season batting average to .287. The steal in Wednesday's contest was Judge's second of the month and his seventh overall.

Judge is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

EDGE Analysis

Judge started both ends of Saturday's doubleheader, and this is presumably just a rest day for the AL MVP candidate. Aaron Hicks will shift over to center field as Marwin Gonzalez enters the lineup in left against right-hander Triston McKenzie. Giancarlo Stanton will serve as the designated hitter.
