It was likely that Judge would get some rest during the Yankees’ stretch of ten games in ten days. It’ll be the first missed game of the season for Judge. Meanwhile, the Yankees are off to a decent start this season, and a game against the lowly Orioles makes sense for him to see some rest, with the team having just two days off in April.
Judge has a .255 batting average, a .500 slugging percentage, and one home run in 31 plate appearances this season. Giancarlo Stanton will take over in the right field with JUdge out of the lineup.
