Longtime Rockies second baseman DJ LeMahieu has signed a 2-year contract for $24 million with the New York Yankees. He’ll join old friend Troy Tulowitzki in a reshaped Yankees infield that should have no shortage of power, defensive acumen, or top-level professionalism.
Looking back on LeMahieu legacy with the Rockies, we can see a player that grew past all expectations while helping the organization reach new heights competitively. In his seven seasons in Denver, LeMahieu established impeccable credentials, winning three Gold Gloves (2014, ’17, and ’18), making two All-Star teams (’15 and ’17), and even winning the 2016 batting title.
