• Aaron Boone said Judge, who took live batting reps in Tampa, could rejoin the Yankees as DH for Tuesday’s game in Texas.
• An MRI ruled out acute UCL damage and Judge received a platelet-rich plasma injection when he was placed on the 10-day injured list on July 27.
• At the time of his IL stint, Judge was leading the majors with a .342 average alongside 37 home runs and 85 RBIs.
• The Yankees plan to monitor Judge’s throwing program after his DH debut to determine when he can safely return to right field.
