It is part of the reason why he won the American League MVP in 2022. And it may have just put a dent in his candidacy to win it again in 2023.
the injury will keep him out, but the expectation is at least a few weeks, if not longer.
Though the merits of that decision can be debated, the same cannot be said for Judge putting his body on the line for Saturday’s catch. After straining his hip on a head-first slide in April, Judge pledged to change his baserunning style and go feet-first if possible.“He always plays hard. It could have been an easy ball to just play off the wall there. But he kind of knew the importance of that catch. It was a big part of the game that really stalled their momentum.”
“Luckily he hit that gate — obviously the gate’s not even supposed to open that way, it’s supposed to open the other way,” Holmes said. “But the other gate is the one that had the pole that actually went in the ground that wouldn’t have gave. So we were like, ‘Man, we’re glad he hit this side of the gate instead of the other one, because it could have been more of an impact.’ A lot of things went right.
It will also be Judge’s last contribution to the Yankees for the immediate future. With the team in a stretch of 17 games in 22 days, it’s one of the slower portions of the schedule, though the competition — including eight games against the Red Sox and Mets — makes it hurt a little more.“No. No. No,” Boone said. “He’s smart.
