New York Yankees two-time MVP Aaron Judge is on the injured list, and according to some Yankee-watchers, the Yankees manager bears responsibility.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said his best player avoided a much worse fate in terms of the injury. The team is optimistic he can return to the lineup as soon as he's eligible to be activated from his IL stint. He'll be eased in as the designated hitter to avoid putting too much strain on his elbow.

Last week, the Mets made their first big splash before Thursday’s MLB trade deadline when they acquired two-time All-Star Gregory Soto to be a lefty specialist in the second half. Adding more arms to the bullpen is rumored to be a top priority.

Spencer Jones is putting up minor-league numbers similar to Aaron Judge's in MLB. Instead of calling him up to New York, the Yankees have him on the trading block.
