Aaron Judge sidelined with bruised ribs as trade deadline approaches

Yankees captain Aaron Judge did not play in a recent game due to bruised ribs, raising concerns about his status as the trade deadline nears. With the Yankees facing a challenging season, discussions are underway regarding potential trades, including Tarik Skubal from the Tigers. MLB commemorated Lou Gehrig on June 2, while CBA negotiations continue as teams grapple with postseason readiness. The Tigers are evaluating their options, particularly involving Skubal amid their rough month. Other players, such as Max Scherzer and Josh Hader, are returning from injuries, which could impact team dynamics moving forward.
