Aaron Judge can’t make a heroic Yankees mistake

Aaron Judge is dealing with a moderate strain of the calf's soleus muscle. While manager Aaron Boone considers a wild-card round appearance unlikely, Judge suggests he intends to play. Some argue he should avoid risky heroics to prevent long-term damage into 2027. Conversely, former coach Sean Casey provides hope for a postseason return, citing Judge as one of the toughest players, suggesting he may still be ready for the upcoming New York Yankees playoffs.
