New York Yankees have fought lately. Friday’s defeat against the Philadelphia Philis marked a second consecutive defeat and was the fourth defeat of the team in its last ten games.
However, the concerns of “Bronx Bomberos” could ride while the team monitors the health of the superstar Aaron Judge. The American League MVP was scratched from Saturday’s lineup due to what the Yankees manager Aaron Boone described as a “elbow problem.”

“He is dealing with an elbow problem,” Boone told journalists on Saturday morning.
Boone also pointed out that the judge experienced some difficulty when he threw the ball from the garden during Friday’s defeat 12-5 against the Philis. The judge was not taken from the alignment in that game.
The apparent discomfort finally caused a magnetic resonance. On Saturday morning, Boone said the team was still waiting for the results of the images.
“Obviously, you asked him in Toronto, but he felt he was fine on the day off,” said Boone. “Then, (Friday) at night, he really couldn’t throw well from the garden, so he entered today and received images in that. It is obviously a concern, but we will wait and see.”
