The New York Yankees placed superstar Aaron Judge on the 10-day injured list on Sunday due to a right flexor strain, and he'll only be utilized as a designated hitter upon his immediate return.

According to Max Goodman, who covers the Yankees, Boone essentially enabled an injured Judge to stay in Friday’s game. He knew Judge wasn’t going to be able to throw hard and he knew it would be a liability. What he didn’t take into account is if the injury would be detrimental to the season.
