Brian Cashman provides latest Aaron Judge injury update for Yankees originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Without Aaron Judge in the lineup, the New York Yankees' offense has struggled immensely.
For a while, Yankees fans were left in the dark about Judge's recovery timeline from a fractured rib.
On Thursday, general manager Brian Cashman provided clarity. It's an update, but not an incredibly positive one.
Cashman told reporters, including The Athletic's Chris Kirschner, that Judge will get re-imaged during the All-Star break.
"Cashman said they do not anticipate the imaging will be clean," Kirschner wrote on X.
"Judge can't do many upper-body exercises that put any stress on his rib cage. They hope the imaging allows them to start adding upper-body workouts because he's limited."
New York's offense has been putrid without the back-to-back AL MVP.
They struck out 34 times in the first two games of their series against the Tampa Bay Rays, a franchise record.

Since June 15, the Yankees are 5-15. They've scored an MLB-worst 56 runs during that span.
The Yankees would love to have Judge back in the lineup, but that may not be happening anytime soon.
