New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge is coming off a historic season in which he hit 62 home runs and was named the AL MVP. He started this year strong and would have been an MVP candidate, but injuries have hampered his progress thus far.
In April, he suffered a hip injury, due to which he missed 10 games. The Yankees' star suffered a toe injury last month when he collided with a wall while making a spectacular catch against the Los Angeles Dodgers, and he has been on the injured list since.
However, Judge recently provided an update regarding his injury, which had both a positive and negative effect on Yankees fans. In this article, we will discuss his return date from injury and how it will impact the AL East powerhouse.

When is Aaron Judge estimated to return?
According to MLB.com, Aaron Judge recently discussed his injury and revealed that he may require surgery to repair his toe. The 31-year-old outfielder, however, does not intend to have surgery until the season is over. He is expected to rejoin the Yankees' lineup after the All-Star break and has been seen practicing on the field. If Judge is able to return after the All-Star break, it will be extremely beneficial to the team, as they have missed his presence on the field.
The Yankees are 48-40, the same as the Toronto Blue Jays, and are competing for a wildcard spot in the playoffs with their division rivals. Following the All-Star break, they will face the Colorado Rockies in a series that will begin on July 14. Hopefully, the reigning American League MVP will be available by then.
Aaron Judge is critical to the Yankees' chances of winning the World Series
Aaron Judge is unquestionably a top-5 player in the MLB when healthy, and the New York Yankees require him if they are to compete for the World Series. Judge has played 49 games this season and is batting .291 with 51 hits, 19 home runs, and 40 RBI. He has a fantastic on-base percentage of .404 and an OPS of 1.078.
Judge batted .320 in his last seven games before getting hurt, with eight hits, five home runs, and seven RBI. We're hoping to see him dominate after the All-Star break.
