From David Adler:
– The Yankees were holding their breath about the health of Aaron Judge on Tuesday night. But they finally got a huge piece of good news.
Judge had to exit the game in the fourth inning of New York’s series-opening 4-2 win against the Orioles at Yankee Stadium, an inning after he was hit by a pitch on the left hand. But X-rays and a CT scan on Judge’s hand taken after the game came back clean. No fracture.
“It’s a big relief,” Judge said. “Just, being hit there before a couple of years ago and breaking my wrist, you never know what’s going to happen. So finding out that it’s not fractured, not broken, is definitely a sigh of relief.”
Judge received the good news from team doctors after being sent to New York-Presbyterian Hospital for imaging and an evaluation by Yankees head team physician Dr. Christopher Ahmad.
Phew, now that Judge is okay, we can all just enjoy an excellent victory.
Nestor really deserved the featured image, as he was MUCH better than I expected, but come on, how can I turn down the sight of Ben Rice beaming from ear to ear on his first Major League hit?
And now Gerrit Cole makes his season debut. Tough time for him to debut! I imagine that Clayton Andrews will see a lot of that game, hopefully the Yankees are leading when he comes in!
Well, I won’t relax until Aaron Judge is in the line-up and hits the ball like Aaron Judge.
hell be fine as long as he doesn’t hit the ball off center causing a lot of reverberations in his hands and wrists. At least it’s not cold
Cortes comes through. The starters keeping up these performances is central, obviously.
Watched the condensed game – Rice made some nice plays – stretching towards the outfiled on Gleyber’s sliding play, making the pick-off putout at first. And no issues on any play at first.
Just a great, great play by Volpe but he’s dragging his OBP back down into the “not good enough” range. Again, he clearly has the talent to have had the hot streak, but let’s hope that’s the real Volpe, and not the one before and after.
People here complaining about Stanton, and I don’t get it – he’s hit better than anyone after Judge and Soto, including Vertigo – the big difference, it seems to me, is that when it’s not a home run, it’s not an automatic out.
Volpe, Vertigo and Stanton have threatened to reach 800, but keep falling back. What do we think the cut-off (arbitrary, yes) is for an OPS being really good? Is that it, around 800?
ss – 725, corner of – 775 (Yankee lf – 750), dh – 775
I knew Volpe was struggling, I hadn’t realized the extent. He hasn’t walked in 2 weeks and only 4 walks over the past month. He’s completely lost control of the zone.
The putout was DJ I believe. Waldo came in to play 3b and DJ moved over to 1b.
DJ actually had two hard hit fly balls last night. So maybe……
Calla, you’re right.
we want puk!
RIP the great Willie Mays. Always something magical about the Kid.
By the time I was old enough to watch him play he was just a shell of himself. 1973 WS – ugh. But his numbers speak for themselves; let alone what his contemporaries said about him. And the fact that every time a young stud came up they said “he’s the next Willie mays” as opposed to “he’s the next Big Fan (or whatever)”
Every time a hot young poster comes to the board I wonder if they’ll be the next Big Fan
Agustin Ramirez 16 HR, 942 OPS to AAA.

I think we should establish ranks within rlyw
Brian is exhibit a
Francis is Koyaanisqatsi
petrus is pee wee
You really don’t have to be an asshole. Although perhaps I’m missing crucial information about that.

O’s have their line-up out, Yankees not yet, no doubt debating Judge who said he expects to be in the line-up.
Judge not in lineup. Still sore. Day to day (month to month?)
I don’t see how you could possibly swing a bat a night after getting hit in the hand like that.
I said minimum 2 weeks.
Jasson Dominguez has a moderate strain of his oblique. No timeline yet.

Word is Judge wants to play tonight (but Yanks may still play it cautiously). A real dislike is brewing here. Yankees people see issue with O’s pitching style. https://x.com/JonHeyman/status/1803433329594642803
Hit them back, that should stop this.
very much agree
Gunnar should get drilled, or perhaps a sneak bean on santander

Good luck to all searching for apartments in NYC. Been there done that with my kids. Though if you don’t mind paying thousands you’ll be fine. Sigh
