Aaron Judge Rebuts Boone on Throwing Outlook as Manager Walks Back Comment

New York keeps him at DH pending trainers’ clearance to return to the outfield.

Overview

  • On WFAN, Aaron Boone said he did not expect Judge to be throwing like he normally does at any point this season.
  • Judge countered that Boone had not seen his recent sessions and said he is confident he will get back to 100 percent.
  • Before Tuesday’s game, Boone tempered his stance, saying he may have overstated it and that Judge should be able to handle himself defensively when cleared.
  • Judge has progressed to long toss at roughly 150 feet with the next step being throws to bases, and there remains no timetable for outfield duty.
  • With Judge at DH, Giancarlo Stanton started in right field Tuesday against the Rays and is slated to sit Wednesday as the Yankees manage his workload.
