Judge's PSA 10 rookies rose on the IL; his raw copies slipped
Judge's cards are priced around his career feats. He lost half a season of home runs to challenge all-time greats, but that didn't stop PSA 10s climbing into his return. Raw copies lagged, but that's scarcity talking more than performance.

The Yankees activated Aaron Judge Monday night. A fractured right rib from a diving catch in late April put him on the IL on May 31. He hits September 8 against Colorado.
He was hitting.248 with 17 home runs in 59 games when he went down. New York went 45-39 without him and sits four games behind the Rays.
Aaron Boone says the first week is a ramp-up: a game, a day off, five to seven innings at a time.
The Take
Find some raw Judge rookies in good condition and wait out until value tiers come back.
