Aaron Boone spoke to reporters following another New York Yankees loss on Saturday. The news was not good.
He announced the slugger Aaron Judge would be heading to the injured list with a flexor strain. The only good news was that there was no UCL tear to the injury.

It will be interesting to see if the Yankees make more moves before Thursday's MLB trade deadline. On Friday, the Yankees acquired Ryan McMahon from the Colorado Rockies.
