  • Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Status for Opening Day TBD

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Monday that he's not sure whether LeMahieu (foot) will be ready for Opening Day, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.

    X-rays on LeMahieu's right foot came back negative after he fouled a ball off the area in Saturday's Grapefruit League contest. However, LeMahieu is dealing with a "pretty significant bone bruise," per Boone, and remains in discomfort. The club doesn't want LeMahieu to have to play through anything early on in the season, so it will exercise caution. Oswaldo Cabrera would likely be the top candidate to fill in at third base if LeMahieu has to miss time to begin the season.

  • Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Could miss multiple days

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Monday that LeMahieu's left foot injury could "cost him some days here," Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

    LeMahieu fouled a ball off the foot during a Grapefruit League contest Saturday. X-rays came back negative, and while LeMahieu is feeling better, he still remains sore and will need a few days of rest. The Yankees will wait and see how the infielder responds over the next few days before having a better feel for his status.

  • Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Gets X-rays on left foot

    LeMahieu fouled a ball off his left foot during Saturday's Grapefruit League game against Toronto and received X-rays that came back clean after the contest, Max Goodman of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

    Per manager Aaron Boone, LeMahieu will get treatment on the injured foot in Tampa on Sunday. While X-rays Saturday came back negative, it's uncertain if the issue will result in LeMahieu missing any time at the start of the regular season. If that were to be the case, Oswaldo Cabrera could be called upon to step into the starting lineup at third base.

  • Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Could be favorite to hit leadoff

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone indicated in an interview with Foul Territory on Friday that he'd like to see LeMahieu win the team's leadoff spot.

    The skipper isn't committing to any lineup spots yet, but he noted when discussing the leadoff spot that he was "excited" with how LeMahieu finished the season and is hoping the 35-year-old can "solve" the leadoff spot for the Yanks. Boone also mentioned Alex Verdugo and Gleyber Torres as potential leadoff candidates. The manager is tentatively planning to hit Juan Soto second and Aaron Judge third.

  • Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Slated to play third base

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that LeMahieu will be the club's starting third baseman in 2024, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

    LeMahieu has bounced around all over the infield during his time with the Yankees, but it sounds like the club would like to have him focus mostly on third base next season. What that means for Oswald Peraza isn't clear, as the rest of the Yanks' infield spots already appear spoken for.

  • Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Heads to bench Friday

    LeMahieu is out of the lineup Friday against the Royals.

    Jake Bauers will start at first base and bat sixth as Estevan Florial jumps to the leadoff spot. LeMahieu went 0-for-4 in Thursday's series finale at Toronto and is slashing just .219/.315/.266 over his last 73 plate appearances dating back to Sept. 8.

  • Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Racks up three hits in nightcap

    LeMahieu went 3-for-5 with a double, a run and two RBI in the second game of a doubleheader against Boston on Thursday.

    LeMahieu sat out the early contest before slotting in at the top of New York's order for the nightcap. The veteran helped the Yankees earn a split of the doubleheader with a three-hit performance that included an RBI single in the second inning and run-scoring double in the eighth. LeMahieu's three hits were more than he had tallied over the previous week combined -- he had gone 2-for-19 over his last five games heading into Thursday.
