Tue Aug 16 202216:05DJ LeMahieu Remains Out For Tuesday's Game
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (toe) is out of the starting lineup for the third straight game on Tuesday as the team takes on left-hander Jeffrey Springs and the Tampa Bay Rays. LeMahieu is dealing with inflammation of his right big toe. He remains day-to-day for now. Gleyber Torres will be manning the keystone and leading off for the game. LeMahieu is in the midst of a solid bounce-back season, slashing .279/.381/.417 with 12 home runs, 43 RBI and 71 runs over 104 games. We'll see if he can suit up for the series finale against the Rays on Wednesday.

Mon Aug 15 202217:41DJ LeMahieu Out With Toe Inflammation
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (toe) is out of the starting lineup again on Monday against the Tampa Bay Rays. LeMahieu will miss his second straight game with toe inflammation, but he should be considered day-to-day until further notice. The 34-year-old has been solid, mostly atop the Yankees order this year, slashing .279/.381/.417 with 12 home runs, 43 RBI, 71 runs scored and four stolen bases in 391 at-bats for the Yanks. Hopefully, he'll return at some point this week. Gleyber Torres is at the keystone and is batting leadoff on Monday against Rays left-hander Jalen Beeks. Torres has just six hits in 47 at-bats (.128) in the last two weeks, but he has 16 homers on the year and will be a fine DFS play out of the leadoff spot.

Thu Jul 28 202216:09DJ LeMahieu Sitting Against Royals On Thursday
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Kansas City Royals. Newly-acquired outfielder Andrew Benintendi will be hitting leadoff for the game. LeMahieu has been the team's primary leadoff hitter this year. He hasn't done much to lose that highly-coveted batting order spot as he's slashed .281/.386/.408 over 90 games this season. The Yankees are likely to do some tinkering with their lineup in the coming weeks now that Benintendi is in town. LeMahieu should continue to have a prime batting position more often than not even if he frequently winds up out of the leadoff spot.

Sat Jun 4 202211:08DJ LeMahieu Not Starting Against Tigers
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu is not in the starting lineup on Saturday against the Detroit Tigers. With Josh Donaldson back from the injured list, LeMahieu could see more time on the bench for the Yankees if Gleyber Torres is at second base. He's been hot over the last seven days, though, going 7-for-23 (.304) with a home run and five RBI in six games, so the Yankees will likely try to keep him in the lineup as much as possible. Overall, LeMahieu is hitting .258/.337/.401 with four home runs, 22 RBI, 25 runs scored and one stolen base in 45 games played. Donaldson is at the hot corner and is hitting second on Saturday against Tigers right-hander Beau Brieske.

Sat May 28 202213:46DJ Lemahieu Returns To The Lineup
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (wrist) will return to the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. The 33-year-old missed four straight games due to left wrist discomfort. However, it appears he's over the injury and is back in the leadoff spot against righty Corey Kluber on Saturday. Fantasy managers should make sure Lemahieu is back in their lineups for Saturday's slate.

Fri May 27 202216:35DJ LeMahieu Out Again Friday
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (wrist) remains out of the starting lineup for his fourth straight game on Friday against the Tampa Bay Rays. LeMahieu received a cortisone injection on Tuesday and should be considered day-to-day by fantasy managers. Hopefully, the 33-year-old will return to the lineup this weekend. With Josh Donaldson (shoulder) now on the injured list, Gleyber Torres is back at second and hitting third, while Marwin Gonzalez is at third and is batting ninth against Rays left-hander Jeffrey Springs. LeMahieu has been decent so far this year, slashing .250/.329/.375 with three home runs, 17 RBI, 21 runs scored and a steal in 39 games. He should primarily play third base when he returns until Donaldson is activated.

Thu May 26 202218:03DJ Lemahieu Out Again Thursday
New York Yankees third baseman DJ LeMahieu (wrist) is out of the starting lineup again on Thursday against the Tampa Bay Rays. LeMahieu was scratched from the lineup on Tuesday with left wrist pain and received a cortisone injection, so he'll miss his second straight game. Gleyber Torres is starting at second and batting third, while Marwin Gonzalez starts at the hot corner and hits eighth against Rays left-hander Ryan Yarbrough. LeMahieu will return to a .250/.329/.375 slash line whenever he returns to action for the Yankees. He has three home runs, 17 RBI, 21 runs scored and a stolen base in 39 games played. Gonzalez has just 10 hits in 47 at-bats and is still searching for his first home run, so DFS gamers should be able to find better sleeper options.

Wed May 25 202209:14DJ LeMahieu Dealing With Minor Wrist Injury
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (wrist) was held out of Tuesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles due to left wrist discomfort. Following the game, Yankees manager provided an update on LeMahieu, stating that the veteran underwent an MRI that came back negative and that he received a cortisone shot. If LeMahieu responds well to the cortisone shot, Boone said that he could be back "in a day or two." In other words, LeMahieu is day-to-day right now. The Yankees wrap up a three-game series against the Orioles on Wednesday, then head to Tampa Bay for a four-game series against the Rays on Thursday.

Mon May 23 202218:06DJ LeMahieu Taking A Seat On Monday
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against right-hander Jordan Lyles and the Baltimore Orioles. Gleyber Torres will be covering the keystone and Marwin Gonzalez will be at the hot corner. Meanwhile, Anthony Rizzo is leading off for the game. LeMahieu went 1-for-4 with a grand slam on Saturday, then proceeded to go a combined 0-for-8 across Sunday's doubleheader. The 33-year-old is slashing .252/.331/.378 with three home runs, 17 RBI and 21 runs over 38 games on the year. Expect to see him back on the field on Tuesday.

Tue May 3 202216:30DJ LeMahieu Out Of The Lineup On Tuesday
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu is getting the day off on Tuesday as the team faces Alek Manoah and the Toronto Blue Jays. The 33-year-old has been one of the team's most consistent hitters out of the gate this year and as a result, he's become the team's primary leadoff hitter. Aaron Hicks will be slotting into the leadoff spot with LeMahieu out on Tuesday. Over 22 games this year, LeMahieu is slashing .296/.367/.432 with two home runs, nine RBI and 13 runs. Expect to see him back on the field on Wednesday.

Fri Apr 22 202200:19DJ LeMahieu Showing Signs Of A Rebound For 2022
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu has started off the young season on a positive note after an injury-plagued 2021 campaign. The 34-year-old has posted one home run, four RBI, and three runs scored while slashing .306/.405/.444 through 11 games. The three-time All-Star is also boasting career-highs with a 7.1% barrel rate, 55.6% hard-hit rate, and xSLG of .513 over his first 46 plate appearances. LeMahieu is a candidate for the occasional off day, though, as the Yankees' tendency to rest players dings their players' values a touch. So long as the Bronx infielder is in the lineup, he should see be a solid contributor capable of a 150+ R/RBI season with a strong batting average.

Sun Apr 10 202216:14DJ LeMahieu Not In The Lineup For Sunday's Series Finale
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu is not in the starting lineup for Game 3 of the team's season-opening series against the Boston Red Sox on Sunday. LeMahieu started each of the team's first two games of the year and went 1-for-5 with a home run and two walks. He batted fifth in the order in both games, playing second base on Friday and third base on Saturday. For Sunday's game, Gleyber Torres is covering second base with Josh Donaldson at third. There's going to be some lineup shuffling for the Yankees early on this year unless injuries force someone key out of the lineup. LeMahieu should be in the lineup most games, but expect him to sit at least once per week for now.

Thu Feb 17 202216:16DJ LeMahieu Fully Recovered After Surgery
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (abdomen) said that he is fully recovered from surgery last October to fix a core muscle injury. LeMahieu is already at the team's spring training complex and is waiting for the end of the league's lockout. The 33-year-old has been swinging a bat all winter. LeMahieu struggled to the tune of a .268/.349/.362 slash line with 10 home runs and 57 RBI in 150 games (679 plate appearances) after slashing an incredible .364/.421/.590 in the shortened 2020 season to finish third in the American League MVP voting. RotoBaller has him ranked just inside the top-15 second basemen in fantasy, and LeMahieu could be a nice value pick in fantasy drafts in 2022 with his current ADP around 120.

Sun Oct 3 202112:42DJ LeMahieu Placed On Injured List With Sports Hernia
The New York Yankees placed infielder DJ LeMahieu (hip) on the 10-day injured list on Sunday. He has been diagnosed with a sports hernia and will undergo surgery. The initial hope was that he'd be able to play through the injury, but on Sunday, Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters that LeMahieu was too compromised to put on the field. The 33-year-old veteran had a disappointing year overall. Across 150 games, he slashed .268/.349/.362 with 10 home runs, 57 RBI and 84 runs. Rougned Odor and Tyler Wade could see increased roles if the Yankees make it to the ALDS.

Fri Oct 1 202118:29DJ LeMahieu Out With Injury
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (hip) is not in the starting lineup Friday after being removed from Thursday's game with hip soreness. It's unclear how serious the injury is, but for now, he should be considered day-to-day. After signing a big contract to stay in the Bronx, LeMahieu is having his worst year since he was in a Colorado Rockies jersey. He's slashed .268/.349/.362 with 10 HRs in 150 games. Rougned Odor will play second in his place. Odor is having another poor year at the dish, batting .203 with a .673 OPS across 100 games this season. Fantasy managers should be able to find better options on the waiver wire.

Fri Oct 1 202107:20DJ LeMahieu Leaves With Hip Soreness On Thursday
New York Yankees third baseman DJ LeMahieu (hip) was removed from Thursday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays due to hip soreness. Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports that LeMahieu has been dealing with hip and groin soreness for a little while now. The 33-year-old veteran went 0-for-3 in Thursday's game before he was replaced by Tyler Wade. LeMahieu should be considered day-to-day at this point. Over 150 games on the year, he's slashed .268/.349/.362 with 10 home runs, 57 RBI and 84 runs.

Mon Sep 27 202109:11DJ LeMahieu Continues Solid Month With Two-Hit Effort Sunday
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu went 2-for-4 with a walk and an RBI in Sunday's win over the Red Sox. LeMahieu rapped a couple of singles, one in the first inning and another in the fifth, with the latter base hit scoring a run for New York. The veteran infielder still hasn't hit for much power but owns the second-highest batting average of any calendar month in September, along with 13 runs scored atop the Yankee lineup. LeMahieu has also shown a most patient eye at the plate, as evidenced by his 12.4 percent walk rate and 10.3 percent strikeout rate in the month. It's been an up and down season for LeMahieu, but he's finishing strong for his fantasy managers.

Thu Sep 16 202118:10DJ LeMahieu Gets Day Off Thursday
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu is not in Thursday's lineup against the Baltimore Orioles. The team has made no indication that the 33-year-old veteran is injured, so he is likely getting a scheduled day off. LeMahieu has been solid at the plate as of late, slashing .320/.379/.440 through his last seven games with one home run, two RBI, and five runs scored on eight hits. Hopefully, for fantasy managers, he can keep this streak alive to finish off the season.

Wed Sep 15 202108:15DJ LeMahieu Collects Two Hits, Homers In Tuesday's Victory
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu went 2-for-5 with a home run and two runs scored in a 7-2 win over the Orioles. LeMahieu was busy on the offensive end from the beginning, singling and scoring on an Aaron Judge long ball, then later belting a solo homer for an insurance run in the ninth. The veteran infielder has enjoyed a solid month of September, as he's hit .319 with eight runs scored and four RBI. LeMahieu will shift to third base as the Yankees attempt to better their defensive alignment down the stretch, though it won't change his fantasy outlook much, as New York will always try to have his bat in the lineup. Hopefully, he can continue his strong finish to the season for his fantasy managers.

New York Yankees second baseman DJ LeMahieu helped the team defeat the Los Angeles Angels 4-1 on Wednesday. He went 1-for-3 with a pair of walks and a run scored in the game. He was also caught stealing in his only attempt. The veteran had a strong series overall against the Angels. Over the three-game set, he went 5-for-13 with four runs scored. It's been an underwhelming year for LeMahieu as he's slashing .267/.350/.368 with just nine home runs over 126 games. He's still showing great plate discipline this year as he ranks in the 96th percentile in whiff rate (14.6%) and in the 90th percentile in strikeout rate (14.3%).
