MLB notebook: Judge (wrist) progressing slowly

When Aaron Judge first sustained a chip fracture of the ulnar styloid bone in his right wrist, the New York Yankees estimated it would be three weeks before he could swing a bat in a game situation.

On the eve of that three-week mark, Judge still hasn't picked up a bat.

The star outfielder has lingering pain in his wrist that has slowed his recovery from the injury, which sent him to the disabled list on July 27.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday he's hopeful Judge would soon start getting in swings underwater in the pool.
