It sucks, I just hopes he can come back at full strength before the end of the year, wrist injuries are tricky I remember Ortiz a few years back a lot of us thought he was done, it took him a while to come back from that injury

Best case scenario, amputation at the elbow. Worst case, it becomes infected with a new strain of bacteria that leads to the first real-life zombie outbreak, and Judge is shot down by the New York National Guard while trying to eat tourists at Coney Island.
"Hating the Yankees like it's a religion since 94'" RIP Mike.
"It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."
- Aaron Judge was originally projected for a three-week absence after suffering a chip fracture in his wrist on July 26, though Yankees manager Aaron Boonetold MLB.com’s Bryan Hoch and other media that Judge is going to need more time. Judge hasn’t yet begun swinging a bat, and an examination on Thursday revealed that the fracture still hasn’t fully healed. Once the pain subsides, Judge and the team are planning on a fairly quick return to the lineup, as Judge has been otherwise able to stay in game shape and train with the game while on the DL. Judge told Hoch and others today that he doesn’t anticipate being out of action for much longer.
Like I said from the beginning, this isn’t structural. The hematoma has to resolve. Once it does, his pain will relent. That usually takes 3 weeks. He’ll be back soon
A chip fracture is literally a tiny piece of bone that chips off. With the MRI, they were able to determine that there wasn’t a crack going through the rest of the bone. So no, this isn’t structural and it’s all about pain control.
