LeMahieu was most recently let go by the Yankees. He should have plenty of suitors, especially from teams who can't make a move at the deadline.

LeMahieu was released by the Yankees earlier this week after he was designated for assignment. He'll have no issues finding an opportunity with another team.

The New York Yankees released infielder DJ LeMahieu on Thursday.

LeMahieu was designated for assignment by the club on Wednesday and quickly finds himself on the open market. LeMahieu hit a decent .266 with a pair of homers alongside a .674 OPS in 45 appearances with the Bombers this season and will likely garner at least a minor-league deal for a contender looking for a veteran bat down the stretch.

The Yankees designated DJ LeMahieu for assignment.

The move comes in the same week LeMahieu had been relegated to a bench role for the Yankees. He has hit .266 at the plate, so he could still draw some interest on waivers from other teams, though he is still owed $22 million on the remainder of his six-year contract that ran through 2026.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said DJ LeMahieu will move to a bench role.

Boone said playing third base is “a challenge” for LeMahieu. Oswald Peraza will play third base for the Yankees on Tuesday.
