^^^^ Looks like something is eating the exposed leaves. Looks like some sort of caterpillar(s) to me. Japs usually turn the leaves into "lace" with only the veins left. It looks like whole sections of leaves are gone. I'd spray with Sevin. Also - any small hail recently??

Trees are more prone to disease when stressed. The tubes shadow the sun a bit. Try to water them if you have the time and means to do so.
My new trees this year had cedar rust on the first set of leafs, now the newer growth looks alot better once the roots got established. I have been giving them about 2 gallons each 2x a week. Bareroot stock antonovkas, but the deer will like em someday.
Here is a apple tree a few hundred yards away from the prior one posted. I always just assumed this was CAR but maybe I’m battling 2 diseases on this tree?

The young tree in the tube does not have fire blight, does have bug damage, likely a caterpillar. The reddish color on the leaves could be a few different things, the variety shown has red veins and could just naturally have the red pigment "discoloration". The older tree is showing signs of Scab or another fungal disease, it is not CAR.

I wouldnt worry about treating for any fungal diseases at this time of year. Next year if you choose to you can apply fungicide as the leaves begin emerging and then on a regular scheduled basis.
