New York Yankees fans agitated as infielder Oswald Peraza heads to IL to make room for Aaron Judge: "Aaron Hicks lives to see another day"

The New York Yankees cannot get rid of the injury bug that has plagued them all season long. It seems as soon as one player gets healthy for the team, another goes down.This is the case as Oswald Peraza is headed to the 10-day IL with a right ankle sprain retroactive to May 6. In a joint move, the team has activated superstar Aaron Judge ahead of their Tuesday matchup with the Oakland Athletics.Talkin' Yanks@TalkinYanksOswald Peraza is headed to the injured list with a right ankle sprain to make room for Aaron Judge, per @Yankees37625Oswald Peraza is headed to the injured list with a right ankle sprain to make room for Aaron Judge, per @Yankees https://t.co/rgMEBQCCkeJudge has been dealing with a hip issue that landed him on the IL. The offense has often looked lost without him in the lineup, so they'll be happy to welcome the slugger back.Peraza's injury, however, hurts the team. He was the player the team had called up in place of the injured Giancarlo Stanton. This team should play in bubble wrap with the rate at which their players get hurt.&quot;Aaron Hicks lives to see another day&quot; one fan tweeted.Tori J@torijacobsAaron Hicks lives to see another day twitter.com/talkinyanks/st…Talkin' Yanks@TalkinYanksOswald Peraza is headed to the injured list with a right ankle sprain to make room for Aaron Judge, per @Yankees38425Oswald Peraza is headed to the injured list with a right ankle sprain to make room for Aaron Judge, per @Yankees https://t.co/rgMEBQCCkeAaron Hicks lives to see another day twitter.com/talkinyanks/st…&quot;Because having a fully healthy roster is the 2nd hardest thing for the Yankees to do&quot; another fan tweeted.Aryeh Levine@AryehLevine1@TalkinYanks @Yankees Because having a fully healthy roster is the 2nd hardest thing for the Yankees to do.20@TalkinYanks @Yankees Because having a fully healthy roster is the 2nd hardest thing for the Yankees to do.Matt@Matt2003_@TalkinYanks @Yankees What dirt does Aaron Hicks have on the Yankees?251@TalkinYanks @Yankees What dirt does Aaron Hicks have on the Yankees?Mike #StantonIsElite@ItalianChungus@TalkinYanks @Yankees Hicks is the luckiest mf to exist31@TalkinYanks @Yankees Hicks is the luckiest mf to existNew York Yankees fans would have rather seen the team move on from Aaron Hicks than move Peraza to the IL.

The Yankees play a series against the Toronto Blue Jays during that time. It will be interesting to see Peraza's future with the team after his IL stint is over.New York Yankees have to turn it around soonNew York Yankees v Texas RangersThe New York Yankees are in the basement of the American League East. This isn't what any baseball fan had in mind when predicting the AL East standings in the offseason. Going into Tuesday, the Yankees sit two whole games behind the Boston Red Sox, a team nobody had high hopes for this season.While injuries have plagued this team, other players must step up and hold it down. They can't rely on a handful of guys for their success this season, or it will be a long Summer.Hopefully, Aaron Judge's return can be the sparkplug the team desperately needs. They can't keep playing this type of uninspiring baseball, not with their championship window open. The fanbase will come unglued if they waste this season away by missing the postseason.
