Yankees still don’t have answers on whether Aaron Judge’s injured rib has healed

TAMPA — The more the Yankees talk about Aaron Judge’s rib/shoulder injury, the murkier the situation seems to get. Tuesday on MLB Network radio, Aaron Boone gave a vague update on the slugger’s fractured right rib. The Yankees manager said that it was healing and Judge would have another CT scan “in a couple of more weeks.”

"So this time down has allowed that rib, that bone to continue to heal and all signs are encouraging there,” Boone said.
In March, when the Yankees seemingly had an answer for why their star slugger was hurting and missing spring training, the doctors had told Judge to rest and in two weeks check to see if the bone was healing.

If not, Judge was likely facing surgery.
