“Thank You to All the Fans” – Aaron Judge Amplifies New York’s Woes With “Unfortunate” Announcement

Aaron Judge has been the heart and soul of the New York Yankees. Whether before or after becoming the Yankees captain, Judge has been consistently giving exceptional performances in some of the best nerve-wracking games. Post his one-month long injury-recovery, he is trying his best to make it to the field. Taking it to his Twitter handle this morning, the Yanks captain thanked all the fans for unwavering support but with heartbreaking news. 

Amidst his injury and everything around him, his and New York Yankees fans eagerly await him to make a comeback. As a result, they rallied behind him, showing unwavering support that propelled him to the All-Star games. 

The big Aaron Judge announcement regarding All-Star appearance

This morning, Judge shared an update on his health and expressed his gratitude to the fans for their constant support for voting him as a starter for the All-Star game in Seattle but there is something else in this announcement that has caught the attention of the fans.

His Twitter statement reads, “I wanted to take the time to say thank you to all the fans who voted me in as a starter for the 2023 All-Star game in Seattle. I feel truly blessed to be included in this group of outstanding players- it is an honor to be among those names. Unfortunately, I will not be making..” 

This is heartbreaking news for all of his fans, as there were hopes and anticipation building among them about their favorite star’s appearance at the prestigious All-Stars game. He made this decision probably because of his late recovery from the injury he sustained during a game against the Los Angeles Dodgers in early June.

The Yankees captain’s decision promises stronger comeback

The reigning and defending American League MVP took one of the best catches in baseball history during the match against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium. Still, this catch cost him a sprain of the ligament in the big toe of his right leg. As a result, ‘All Rise’ has not appeared in the ballpark since June 3rd.

It’s pretty clear from his announcement that he wants to focus on rehab so that he doesn’t have to stay away from the games anymore. It must be heartbreaking for the fans not to see him play in the All-Stars, but at the brighter side of it: once he is 100% fit and suitable to go for the remaining season, it is going to be a win-win situation for both him and his fans.
