Yankees May Get Both Judge And Chapman Back This Week

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — Yankees manager Aaron Boone said All-Star slugger Aaron Judge could return to New York’s lineup this week during a three-game series against the Boston Red Sox.

Boone said Sunday that Judge is “getting real close” to returning from a broken right wrist. Judge has been cleared to play the outfield and run the bases, and he played two innings in right Friday night. He’s still working his way back at the plate, though.
