The infielder has gotten off to a strong start at the plate since returning from the injured list, recording hits in two of three games for the Yankees. After Saturday’s game, LeMahieu is hitting .375 with one home run and one RBI across three games this season.

The New York Yankees reinstated DJ LeMahieu from the 10-day IL on Tuesday.

LeMahieu was activated in a corresponding move after Oswaldo Cabrera (ankle) was placed on the 10-day IL. He's expected to be on the bench Tuesday and return to the starting lineup Wednesday. With Jazz Chisholm (oblique) sidelined, LeMahieu is anticipated to take on a regular role at second base, a shift from his primary usage at third and first base over the past two seasons. In 2024, he posted a .204 batting average with two home runs, 26 RBI and 19 runs scored across 201 at-bats in 67 games.

DJ LeMahieu (calf/hip) is expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list by the New York Yankees on Tuesday. Having missed the entire season so far recovering from a left calf strain and a right hip issue, manager Boone suggested LeMahieu would likely have a bench role Tuesday in Seattle before an expected start at second base in Wednesday's series finale with the Mariners.

The 36-year-old is anticipated to see a regular role at second base for the Yankees initially while Jazz Chisholm (oblique) is on the shelf, after LeMahieu had seen most of his starts at third base and first base over the previous two seasons. In 2024, LeMahieu hit .204 with two home runs, 26 RBI, and 19 runs scored over 201 at-bats in 67 games.

According to Erik Boland of Newsday, DJ LeMahieu (calf) is slated to join the New York Yankees in Seattle for the start of their series Monday. LeMahieu has been out all season with a calf strain and, more recently, a hip issue. Over nine rehab games, he went 12-for-27 with one home run and a 4:3 K:BB.

Fantasy Impact

The Yankees have not yet confirmed if LeMahieu will be activated from the 10-day injured list for the series opener, though the report indicates he is healthy now. With Jazz Chisholm (oblique) currently sidelined, the source notes LeMahieu could be the Yankees' primary second baseman.

DJ LeMahieu will play at least two more rehab games in Triple-A.

Fantasy Impact

LeMahieu will be re-evaluated after those two games to see if he can be activated. He resumed his rehab assignment last Friday.
