New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge appears to be getting closer to a return.
Manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Judge could be back in the lineup by the time the Yankees travel to London at the end of the month to face the Boston Red Sox.
It is possible that Aaron Judge could return in time for the London series, Aaron Boone said. ????????

That series is scheduled for June 29 and 30, so Judge may still be roughly three weeks away from a return to action. Judge hasn’t played since April 20 thanks to an oblique strain.
The Yankees are also starting to move toward a return for another one of their sluggers who has been out for the bulk of the season. They’re 38-21 without much contribution from these two, which should be very unsettling to their AL East rivals.
