Jazz Chisholm Jr. Fantasy Stats

It's been a frustrating season so far for New York Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr., who enters Week 7 with a .207 average (30-for-145) with only four home runs, 14 RBI, 17 runs scored, 11 stolen bases, 16 walks, and 46 strikeouts in 163 plate appearances across 40 games played in his second full season in the Bronx. The 28-year-old two-time All-Star hit a career-high 31 home runs, drove in 80 runs, and stole 31 bases in his first full year with the Yanks in 2025, making him the clear top option at second base in fantasy going into the 2026 campaign. Chisholm is still providing useful speed on the basepaths, but his power numbers are down early on, and he has a bad combination of ranking in the 20th percentile in strikeout rate and the 26th percentile in hard-hit rate. In 10 games so far in May, Chisholm has gone 8-for-36 (.222) with a homer, double, four RBI, four runs, and two steals. He hasn't had a multi-hit game since April 26. It's still early, though, so there's a buy-low opportunity for his power/speed potential.

New York Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. is not in the team's starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the visiting Los Angeles Angels with left-hander Reid Detmers on the mound, according to MLB.com. First baseman Ben Rice will also take a seat for the second straight day against a lefty. Cody Bellinger will also start on the bench for the Yanks. Amed Rosario is at second base in place of Chisholm and will bat third for the Yankees against Detmers. The 30-year-old Rosario has only played in 10 games so far in 2026 as a bench option, but he's gone .308 (8-for-26) with two home runs, six RBI, and two runs scored in his 29 plate appearances. Rosario has some experience against Detmers, too, hitting .462 with a 1.115 OPS and a home run against him in 13 career at-bats. The Yankees are hoping a day off will get Chisholm right, as the 28-year-old has gone just 11-for-61 (.180) in his 16 games with no homers. Chisholm does have six stolen bases in 65 plate appearances.

New York Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. is a solid source of power and speed as a middle infielder going into the 2026 season after he clubbed a career-high 31 home runs and also stole 31 bases to reach the 30-30 mark for the first time in his career in 2025. The 28-year-old left-handed hitter made the All-Star squad for the second time in his career while slashing .242/.332/.481 with an .813 OPS, 80 RBI, and 75 runs scored in 531 plate appearances over 130 regular-season games in his first full year in the Bronx. Chisholm has a lengthy injury history, but his power/speed upside is unmatched at the second base position, making him RotoBaller's top-ranked second baseman, who also still has eligibility at the hot corner in some leagues. The six-year veteran has swung the bat well in spring training, too, going 4-for-14 (.286) with a homer, three RBI, and a steal in a small sample size of seven Grapefruit League games. He's a great fit in a strong Yankees lineup with a short porch in right field at Yankee Stadium.

In his first full season in the Bronx, New York Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. earned his second career All-Star nod and finished the year by slashing .242/.332/.481 with an .813 OPS and career-highs in home runs (31) and RBI (80). He also had 31 stolen bases and a career-high 75 runs scored in 130 regular-season games. In what will be a contract year if he doesn't reach a long-term extension with the Bombers, the 27-year-old infielder could have another strong season in pinstripes. Chisholm's power/speed combination is rare for a player who qualifies at the keystone, and it helps mask some of his liabilities. The former Miami Marlins second baseman is streaky, has a lengthy injury history, and has struck out almost 28% of the time in his six-year big-league career. Fantasy managers are mostly comfortable with sacrificing some average at the 2B position for Chisholm's power/speed upside, especially with the short right-field porch at Yankee Stadium.

New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said he views second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. as "currently part of the solution," but that the team will be "open-minded" when asked about a possible trade, per Bryan Hoch of MLB.com. While it doesn't appear that the Yankees are actively shopping Chisholm Jr., it seems that the team may listen to the right offer. Across 531 plate appearances in the Bronx last season, Chisholm Jr. slashed .242/.332/.481 with 31 home runs, 80 RBI, 75 runs scored, and 31 stolen bases. He will play the entire 2026 season, his final year under club control, at 28 years old. If the Yankees don't view Chisholm Jr. as part of their long-term plans, they could look to move on. However, a Chisholm Jr. trade would leave what is presumably a win-now team with a hole at second base. Depending on how the rest of New York's offseason progresses, Chisholm Jr. could be a name to monitor.

New York Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. (forearm) exited the team's 6-1 win over the Baltimore Orioles on Saturday after a hit by pitch on his left forearm. Initial X-rays came back negative, but Chisholm still has to undergo a CT scan. The Yankees brought in Jose Caballero to run for Chisholm in the fifth inning after he finished the day 0-for-2. For now, it appears that Chisholm avoided a significant injury. If that proves to be the case, it'll be a major sigh of relief for the Yankees as the postseason approaches. Thanks in part to a career year from Chisholm, the club has already clinched a playoff berth and remains in contention for an American League East title. The 27-year-old, who became a member of the 30-30 club this season, has slashed .243/.333/.482 with 31 homers, 31 stolen bases, 80 RBI, and 75 runs scored in 530 plate appearances. Update: Chisholm's CT scan was negative, the Yankees announced.

New York Yankees infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. is out of the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. This appears to be a rare rest day for Chisholm who last sat out on August 23. Chisholm has been a solid contributor lately, slashing .259/.283/.414 with three home runs, eight RBI, and five steals in September. The expectation is that he'll be back in the lineup on Friday. In the meantime, Amed Rosario will take over at second base and bat fifth on Thursday. Fantasy managers should adjust their lineups accordingly.

Testing on New York Yankees infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr.'s knees came back clean, and he hopes to be in Friday's lineup against the Toronto Blue Jays, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports. Chisholm injured both of his knees while fielding a ball on Thursday and exited the game in the fourth inning. At this time, it's unclear precisely what was being tested in his knees, and the team has not released any additional details since Chisholm was initially diagnosed with contusions. However, when reporters spoke to Chisholm, it appeared he is ready to play Friday and shouldn't be in danger of missing any time. For now, he is labeled as day-to-day, and Jose Caballero entered the game for him in his place. Chisholm is slashing .238/.360/.571 on the season with 28 home runs, 26 stolen bases, 68 runs scored, and 70 RBI.

New York Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. (knees) exited their game against the Houston Astros on Thursday with contusions on both knees, according to the Yankees. Chisholm suffered the injuries on different plays. He appeared to injure his left knee when applying a tag to Jose Altuve in the bottom of the third inning. The 27-year-old stayed in to hit in the top of the fourth, but after he struck out, the Yankees brought in Jose Caballero to man the keystone in the bottom half of the inning. Chisholm missed all of May because of an oblique strain, but he has been an integral part of the Yankees' lineup when healthy. Over 108 games and 449 plate appearances, Chisholm has slashed .242/.339/.499 with a career-high 28 homers, 70 RBI, 68 runs scored, and 26 stolen bases. He's not someone the Yankees or fantasy managers can afford to lose down the stretch.

New York Yankees infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. didn't get a hit in Friday night's 10-2 blowout win over the hosting Chicago White Sox, but he still managed to reach a noteworthy milestone for the season. Chisholm went 0-for-3 with two walks and two runs and also stole a base to reach the 25-homer, 25-steal mark in his first full season in pinstripes. It's the first time that the 27-year-old has accomplished the feat in his sixth MLB campaign. Chisholm is now hitting .240/.339/.490 with an .829 OPS, 26 long balls, 66 RBI, 65 runs scored and 25 steals in 103 games played in 2025. He's been running wild of late on the basepaths, going a perfect 11-for-11 on steal attempts in his last 17 games. In 25 games in August, he's gone 19-for-85 (.224) with eight homers, a double, triple, 17 RBI, 20 runs and 11 steals. Chisholm's move to the Bronx has most certainly been a plus for his overall fantasy upside.
