New York Yankees outfielder/infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. (elbow) expressed on Friday, August 16 that he expects to swing a bat in a "day or two." The 26-year-old further noted that he has not experienced any pain since suffering a sprained UCL. Chisholm hit the 10-day IL last week and could return much sooner than expected, given his current progression. Fantasy managers should continue to pay close attention to how Chisholm feels after swinging a bat, as he could return to game action before the end of the month. Prior to the injury, the 26-year-old was riding a six-game hitting streak with a .391/.417/.826 line and three long balls. While sidelined, Oswaldo Cabrera, DJ LeMahieu, and Oswald Peraza should continue to split time at the hot corner in the Bronx.
Rest and rehab has been recommended for New York Yankees infielder/outfielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. (elbow) instead of surgery after he sought multiple opinions from doctors on his UCL injury. The Yankees are holding out hope that Chisholm can play again this season, likely in September or for a postseason run. Chisholm was put on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday with a left (non-throwing) elbow sprain that he suffered diving into home plate on Monday against the White Sox. "I can tell you Jazz is pretty encouraged by how he's feeling," manager Aaron Boone said. "So hopefully that's a good sign." It's unknown when the 26-year-old will be able to resume swinging. For the time being, Oswaldo Cabrera is expected to see most of the playing time at third base in the Bronx, with DJ LeMahieu also being an option. Chisholm hit seven homers in his first 14 games after joining the team.
The New York Yankees placed infielder/outfielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. (elbow) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to Aug. 13) with a left-elbow sprain on Wednesday and recalled infielder Oswald Peraza from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in a corresponding move. Chisholm suffered a UCL sprain in his left elbow on Monday night and will now miss at least the next 10 days. However, if the 26-year-old needs surgery, he will end up missing the rest of the 2024 season. The Yankees acquired him from the Miami Marlins at the trade deadline at the end of July, and Chisholm had gone 18-for-57 (.316) with seven homers, 11 RBI and five steals in his 14 games in the Bronx as the primary third baseman. The Yankees will now likely turn to some combination of Oswald Cabrera and DJ LeMahieu at the hot corner, with Peraza serving as a bench bat.
New York Yankees infielder/outfielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. (elbow) is expected to be placed on the injured list, according to manager Aaron Boone. This is not the news fantasy managers wanted to hear right now. Chisholm was off to an excellent start with the Bronx Bombers. He was hitting over .300 with seven home runs and five steals in 14 games. The 26-year-old suffered a left UCL injury while sliding into home plate during Monday's loss. It sounds like the team still plans to do additional testing to determine the severity of the injury. The absence of Chisholm should mean more playing time for DJ LeMahieu and Oswaldo Cabrera at the hot corner. Neither player is going to be as reliable of a fantasy contributor. Cabrera is the better option between the two, as he's hitting .245 with eight home runs and 34 RBI in 86 games this season. Cabrera will bat eighth and play third base versus right-hander Jonathan Cannon on Tuesday.
New York Yankees third baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. (arm, shoulder) was replaced by Ben Rice as a pinch-hitter in the seventh inning of Monday's series opener against the hosting Chicago White Sox. Television replays showed Chisholm moving his left arm/shoulder in the dugout after scoring a run in the fifth inning. Before being pulled, Chisholm went 2-for-3 with a run scored and his 27th stolen base of the year. The severity of the 26-year-old's injury is unclear, so fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day before checking back on his status on Tuesday. In 14 games in New York since being acquired by the Miami Marlins at the trade deadline, Chisholm has gone 18-for-57 with seven home runs, 11 RBI, five steals and 13 runs scored and has seen his fantasy stock rise considerably in a much more potent lineup. An extended absence for Chisholm would allow DJ LeMahieu to move back to third on a full-time basis.UPDATE: Chisholm left with a left-elbow injury after his slide into home plate. Manager Aaron Boone said X-rays on Chisholm's left elbow came back negative and that he's in good spirits.
