ESPN's Marly Rivera first reported that one of the Yankees' three All-Stars had tested positive for COVID-19. That pool includes Judge along with closer Aroldis Chapman and ace Gerrit Cole.
Both Cole and Chapman were spotted on the field at Yankee Stadium during Thursday's pregame warmups prior to the game's cancellation. Judge was not.
If Judge ends up testing positive, then this could become far more than just an issue in the Yankees' clubhouse. Judge mingled with players, coaches, fans and more in Denver this week during this year's All-Star festivities. He also played in the All-Star Game on Tuesday, not wearing a mask.
General manager Brian Cashman revealed that not all players awaiting results of pending tests are vaccinated.
