MLB is unpredictable, and a team’s fortune can change in a heartbeat. The New York Yankees have experienced that this season. After making the ALCS in the 2022 postseason, the Bronx Bombers are struggling to win games this season. Furthermore, their bad form has been punctuated by injuries to important players. But the Yankees’ most recent roster update may spell a positive change for the team. 

Carlos Rodon suffered an injury during Spring Training and is expected to return later this month. Giancarlo Stanton suffered a mid-season injury closely followed by Yankees captain Aaron Judge, who is injured at the moment. But the team’s most recent roster update is a step forward. 

The New York Yankees have reinstated outfielder Harrison Bader from the injured list

The Yankees have been truly unfortunate with injuries, with stars like Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton getting hurt mid-season. But the team recently made a positive roster update and activated Harrison Bader from the injured list. He suffered a strained left oblique muscle during Spring Training and has not played for the Yankees this season.

Bader will help strengthen a diminished Bronx Bombers lineup, offering help on both sides of the game. Talkin’ Yanks shared the news regarding Bader on Twitter.

In a tweet, they said, “The Yankees have activated Harrison Bader from the IL and optioned Franchy Cordero to AAA”. This is a big update for a struggling Yankees team that is languishing at the bottom of the AL East. Fans have reacted to the news as well and are happy.

The reactions to this update have been wholly positive.

Some fans were hyped about Bader’s return. 

Other fans look forward to the team improving.

Bader is sure to improve this Yankees team that has been struggling to win games consistently. But there are still holes in the team due to other injuries hampering them. Furthermore, the Bronx Bombers recently experienced a setback with their captain’s injury.

Aaron Judge goes on the 10-day injured list

Aaron Judge suffered an injury while sliding into a base during a New York Yankees game earlier this month. There were hopes that the Yankees’ captain may avoid the injury list. But in a recent update, the team announced that Judge was put on the 10-day injury list.

This was a big blow for the Bronx Bombers who are already struggling with injury issues. But with Harrison Bader coming off of the injured list, there is some hope.
