New York Yankees outfielder and reigning American League MVP Aaron Judge is out of Saturday's lineup and is awaiting results on imaging performed on his right elbow. Yankees manager Aaron Boone on Saturday described the injury as an "elbow issue" to reporters, including Joel Sherman .

Judge apparently sustained the elbow injury in a Tuesday game against the Toronto Blue Jays but played on through the week despite it. However, Ladson noted that Friday's Phillies game showed issues with him throwing the ball after an off-day on Thursday was hoped to ease any lingering pain.

Aaron Judge is not in the Yankees' lineup for their 1 p.m. game against the Philadelphia Phillies at Yankee Stadium. Judge is dealing with an elbow issue, Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters Saturday morning. Judge underwent imaging earlier Saturday and the Yankees are waiting for results.
