Ahead of Sunday\u2019s game, the latest update on Aaron Judge<\/a> was released.<\/p>\n

MLB.com wrote<\/a> (on August 2): \u201cCompleted another running session on Aug. 2, according to manager Aaron Boone. There is still no date set for additional imaging, which will determine when Judge can resume baseball activities.\u201d<\/p>\n

Judge has been out since May 31.<\/p>\n

He had been batting .248 with 53 hits, 17 home runs, 38 RBIs, 43 runs and five stolen bases in 59 games.<\/p>\n

According to the site, Judge could still return this month.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what people have been saying:<\/p>\n

@EricKopp21:<\/a> \u201cI continue to believe that Aaron Judge is NOT returning and that this will be a quiet deadline for the Yanks. They know they\u2019re going nowhere.\u201d<\/p>\n

@nysportsfan322<\/a>: \u201cI\u2019m really starting to think that Judge isn\u2019t coming back this year\u201d<\/p>\n

@LeorKushner:<\/a> \u201cJudge is done for the year. Yankees know this, and \u2013 as such \u2013 are not buying at the deadline Bookmark it\u201d<\/p>\n

Aaron Boone said he wasn\u2019t sure if Giancarlo Stanton is going to actually swing or just stand in during his upcoming lives against Carlos Rod\u00f3n and Clarke Schmidt, but he has been hitting.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s still no reimagining date for Aaron Judge.<\/p>\n

The Yankees have been in Chicago all week, as they are coming off a series where they split four games with the White Sox.<\/p>\n

They are currently the second-place team in the American League East with a 62-49 record in 111 games.<\/p>\n

Without Judge, the Yankees have still been able to remain one of the top teams in the MLB<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Right now, they are 3.5 games back of the Tampa Bay Rays<\/a> for first.<\/p>\n
