Roger Clemens debates status of Aaron Judge as an all-time Yankee

Former New York Yankees pitcher Roger Clemens stated on WFAN that Aaron Judge cannot be considered an all-time club great without winning a World Series title. Clemens emphasized the importance of championships for players in the organization, comparing Judge’s situation to that of Mike Trout. Despite individual accolades, Judge remains without a championship as he seeks to lead the Yankees in the coming years. Meanwhile, the team captain continues his recovery from a right rib stress fracture that has kept him sidelined since June. Judge participated in batting practice at Petco Park on Friday and could return to the lineup during the team's upcoming homestand that begins September 8. Manager Aaron Boone indicated the team has not ruled out a minor league assignment for the slugger prior to his return.
