DJ LeMahieu News
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Boston Red Sox. Fantasy managers don't need to be alarmed as this appears to be a routine rest day for the veteran infielder. LeMahieu sat out the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader as well. He's currently in the middle of a 1-for-16 slump at the plate. Jake Bauers will cover first base and bat seventh versus right-hander Tanner Houck on Wednesday.
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu had a big night on Friday, going 3-for-4 with two home runs, two RBI, a walk, and three runs scored. That makes it 11 homers for the utility man on the season. Though he's struggled most of the year, he is turning it on over the last 15 games with a .327/.435/.538 slash line. LeMahieu can help teams when he's right, so if he's available, pay close attention to see if this hot hitting lasts.
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (calf) has returned to the team's starting lineup on Monday and is playing first base and batting sixth in the order against Atlanta Braves left-hander Max Fried. This will be LeMahieu's first action since being scratched from last Wednesday's lineup with a tight calf. The 35-year-old veteran infielder hasn't quite performed up to expectations this year, slashing a mediocre .240/.315/.373 with eight home runs, 18 doubles, two triples, 29 RBI and 35 runs scored in 387 trips to the plate and 96 games. The three-time All-Star has been better since the All-Star break, though, hitting .319 (22-for-69) with a home run, five doubles, two RBI and seven runs scored in 20 games (19 starts). Hopefully, LeMahieu is able to stay healthy and finish out the year on a higher note.

New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu's 2022 season was disrupted by an injury, limiting him to 125 games. He played well overall, though, slashing .261/.357/.377 with 12 home runs, 74 runs, 46 RBI, and four stolen bases. However, LeMahieu played with an injured toe the last two months and hit .285 with 11 home runs before the calendar flipped to August. The 34-year-old heads into 2023 healthy, and fantasy managers should buy in again. LeMahieu's always been a batting average specialist with a .297 career mark and seven consecutive seasons of a sub-14.2% strikeout rate. The 26 home runs from 2019 are an outlier over his 12-year career, but he plays his home games in New York and has averaged about 16 dingers per 162 games over the past three seasons. The Yankees have a powerful lineup, and given LeMahieu's on-base ability (.367 OBP as a Yankee), he'll be touching home plenty. The club doesn't have a set position for the veteran, but there's little doubt he'll reach 130 games if he stays off the injured list, considering his versatility, production, and the unproven youngsters on the roster, such as Oswaldo Cabrera and Oswald Peraza. Providing fantasy owners with a .275 average, 12 HRs, 140 RBI plus runs, and a few stolen bases is something to be happy about, especially with eligibility at first, second, and third base. LeMahieu's 254 ADP is a bargain.
