The New York Yankees have outlined a gradual return plan for Aaron Judge as he comes back from injury ahead of the World Baseball Classic. The team emphasized a phased approach, starting with limited batting practice and infield work before progressing to full participation in spring training games. This careful timeline aims to ensure Judge is physically ready without risking further setbacks.
The Yankees are balancing his need to regain game readiness with the demands of international competition. While Judge’s availability for the WBC remains uncertain, the organization has confirmed that his health and long-term performance will take priority. The team continues to monitor his progress daily, adjusting the schedule as needed based on his response to workouts and medical evaluations.
