Yankees captain Aaron Judge didn't start Tuesday night in Toronto after being in the lineup 22 games in a row and 45 of 46.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge is not playing on Tuesday against the Blue Jays in Toronto. Judge will take a seat after playing in the team's last 22 games, but the Yankees could hold him out the rest of the way to close out the 2023 regular season with nothing on the line.

"My understanding is no," Aaron Boone said. "I've kind of felt that way for a while. The belief is that it's gone about as well as it [could] since he's come back."

Yankees manager Aaron Boone reiterated Tuesday that slugger Aaron Judge is not expected to require offseason surgery on his ailing toe. Judge was sidelined for 42 games after tearing a ligament in his right big toe when he crashed into the right-field fence while making a catch at Dodger Stadium on June 3.
