New York Yankees captain Aaron Judge has been cleared for light workouts as he recovers from a stress fracture in his right rib, which has sidelined him since May 31. Judge expressed confidence in returning this season and has started stretching and jogging, although he acknowledges that hitting will be the ultimate test for his recovery. The Yankees, currently 28-27 without him, have also been missing Giancarlo Stanton and Cody Bellinger due to injuries. As the team looks to boost its lineup, Judge is focused on progressing toward a return with 52 days left in the season.
