Also on Sunday, Brian Cashman spoke about Aaron Judge (via MLB Network Radio on SiriusXM).

Judge has been out since May 31 with an injury.

Cashman: “But he’s now been cleared to start doing light activities and get into that conditioning mode. So hopefully, you know, when we were able to get to the finish line at some point with him, and he obviously believes he’s going to be back. I think the doctors believe he’ll be back for us. We just want to make sure that getting him back in one condition cleared is what we want, but we need the whole engine firing on all cylinders. We don’t need him to blow a tire elsewhere because of the downtime and the lack of conditioning… So he’s got to be properly tuned up, you know, so we can get the player we expect when, you know, when he’s ready to go.”
