Why?

Aaron Judge sustained a right calf strain on Aug. 11 and returned from the injury on Aug. 26, only to re-injure the calf while running the bases during that game. At the time, general manager Brian Cashman said that Judge’s stint on the IL would take twice the time of the original strain because the rehab had failed. “according to an article by Bryan Hoch
