Judge checked his elbow condition while training with his teammates in Miami on the 2nd and 4th (Korea time). He conducted batting training in the betting cage without much trouble. As a result, it is expected to return soon.
MLB.com reported on the 5th that Judge, who conducted batting training in Miami, will join the lineup on the 6th or 7th. It's an away game against the Texas Rangers. Of course, he cannot defend for the time being, so he will play as a designated hitter.
MLB.com said: "'Jersey did some light defensive training at Yankee Stadium recently, but he didn't throw the ball overhand. According to manager Aaron Boone, throwing training is likely to take place on August 9-14. In other words, the return of the outfielder will be after the middle of this month.

At the time, Yankees manager Aaron Boone said, `As a result of the examination, there were no injuries to the ligament. That's a relief. When he returns from the IL, he'll be a designated hitter for a few days. After that, I hope he will return to the outfield as soon as his condition improves during throwing training.
Judge injured his elbow in an away game against the Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Center on the 23rd of last month. In the bottom of the sixth inning with a 4-3 lead, he caught Toronto George Springer's right-handed hit with two outs and second base, and then threw to catch Davis Schneider, who was rushing home from second base, but his elbow was strained.
Judge then frowned as he caught Alejandro Kirk's deep fly to right field with one out and second base and threw it hard into the infield, bending and stretching his right elbow in the bottom of the seventh inning. However, he did not rest afterwards. Judge also played both the game against Toronto on the 24th and the home game against the Philadelphia Phillies on the 26th. Eventually, as the pain worsened, he was tested for X-rays and went on the IL.
It is the first time in more than two years that Judge has been on the IL since he injured his right thumb while playing defense against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium on June 4, 2023.
