Three at-bats are what the Yankees got from Aaron Judge’s return from a strained calf and the injured list on Wednesday. When their anemic lineup gets the next one is unknown. Thursday, one day after Judge left the second game of a doubleheader against the Braves in Atlanta due a right calf issue, the right …

When the Yankees’ season resumes, most likely in Atlanta on Tuesday, Aaron Boone will write Aaron Judge into a lineup card for the first time in two weeks. “He looks good. He looks ready to go,’’ Boone said of Judge, who participated in a team workout Saturday at Yankee Stadium. “When we return, Aaron will …

If Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton hadn’t beaten DJ LeMahieu to the injured list, the second baseman would still be bummed about being unable to play due to a sprained left thumb.

These guys need a boost. “I think the off day [Monday] is coming at a good time,” Brett Gardner said Sunday, after his Yankees suffered a walk-off, 4-3 loss to the Rays at Tropicana Field, their fifth loss in seven tries. “We’ve kind of had a crazy schedule. It’ll be good to take a step …

As expected, the Yankees placed Giancarlo Stanton on the 10-day injured list Sunday morning with a strained left hamstring. Infielder Thairo Estrada, on site with the team as part of the taxi squad, replaced Stanton. Stanton suffered his injury in Game 2 of Saturday’s doubleheader, a 5-3 Yankees loss to the Rays, when he advanced …

The long day, reduced as it was, began like how the Yankees dreamt it back in December 2017: It concluded with a recurring nightmare they’ve come to know all too well. If “Next Man Up” has come to define the Yankees in the Aaron Boone era, Giancarlo Stanton too often has served the role as …
