Another Data Point

Aaron Judge underwent shoulder surgery:

American League Rookie of the Year Aaron Judge had arthroscopic surgery on his left shoulder Monday, but he is expected to be ready for the beginning of spring training, the New York Yankees announced.

The procedure involved a loose-body removal and cartilage cleanup, the team said.

Judge, 25, played down the impact of his shoulder issues during his slump that began the second half, but there was suspicion that the shoulder could be bothering him.

It does seem like major slumps have an associated injury. The Yankee might have been better off putting Judge on the DL early in August for two weeks to give the shoulder a chance to heal.
