"I don't know (when Judge will have his rib re-imaged). We're probably not ready to go down that road yet, with where he's at," Boone said .

It remains to be seen when both players will return. The hope is that they will be able to impact the Yankees before the season ends, but their timelines are not currently certain.

Overall, New York has been able to perform well despite the sluggers' injury absences. The Yankees' 48-32 record is the best mark in the American League. The ball club holds a two-game lead over the Tampa Bay Rays in the American League East standings heading into Friday night's contest.
They will be an especially intriguing team to follow before the trade deadline. The Yankees may feel more urgency to add another bat or two given the injuries on the roster. New York will also likely pursue bullpen help.
At the moment, the team's focus is on Friday's game against the Red Sox at Fenway Park in Boston.
