Yankees prepare for postseason without Aaron Judge due to injury

The New York Yankees are gearing up for the postseason while potentially missing Aaron Judge, who is dealing with a calf strain. His absence may significantly impact the team’s offense, which struggled in the summer without him. Several players will need to step up in Judge's stead, including Jazz Chisholm Jr., Heliot Ramos, and Spencer Jones. The Yankees' management is hopeful that these players can fill the power gap as the team navigates through the early playoff rounds, particularly against left-handed pitchers. The situation remains fluid as Judge's recovery progresses.
