TORONTO -- Outfielder Cody Bellinger will begin a rehab assignment Tuesday and could rejoin the New York Yankees next weekend, manager Aaron Boone said Sunday.
Bellinger has not played since July 26 because of a strained left hamstring. He will play Tuesday and Thursday, likely with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, Boone said.
Bellinger, who is batting .259 with 11 homers and 53 RBIs in 102 games this season, re-signed with the Yankees last winter for $162.5 million over five years. He was the MVP of the 2026 All-Star Game in Philadelphia.
Three-time MVP Aaron Judge is scheduled to throw and run in New York on Sunday, Boone said. Judge hasn't played since May 31 because of a broken right rib. On Friday, Judge threw for the first time since going on the injured list.
Left-hander Carlos Rodón (elbow) is expected to make a minor league rehab start Tuesday, Boone said, but the team hasn't decided where Rodón will pitch. He has made two minor league starts this month, one at Triple-A and one at Double-A Somerset.
