Yankees' Aaron Judge goes on IL with flexor strain in elbow, but UCL is OK
Briefly

Aaron Judge's pain in his right elbow is diagnosed as a strained flexor tendon, avoiding a UCL tear scare. Judge will be placed on the 10-day injured list and received a platelet-rich plasma injection. He will refrain from baseball activities for several days and will begin swinging a bat afterward. Upon returning, Judge will serve as the designated hitter. Giancarlo Stanton has confidence in playing the outfield when Judge returns, emphasizing the team's need for versatility in player positions.
You never want to go in the tube. It's never fun [and] you don't know what's going to show up . . . but I'm glad we got a better answer than it could have been.
Whatever is going to [give] us the best opportunity to win for all circumstances, so I believe that's going to be for me to be in the outfield.
