New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge has been placed on the 10-day injured list due to a calf strain, ending his regular season. His availability for the team's postseason, set to begin September 29th, is uncertain.
New York, NY, September 20, 2026 — The New York Yankees have placed star slugger Aaron Judge on the 10-day injured list, a move that effectively ends his regular season. The decision stems from a calf strain, the team announced.
Judge’s placement on the injured list marks a significant development for the Yankees as they approach the end of their regular season schedule. The outfielder, a prominent power hitter for the team, will be sidelined for the remaining regular season games.
The immediate impact of this injury means Judge will not participate in any further regular season contests. However, his availability for the team’s upcoming postseason is now a question mark. The Yankees’ postseason is scheduled to commence on September 29th.
Further details regarding the severity of the calf strain and a projected timeline for Judge’s potential return to play beyond the regular season have not been provided at this time.
