DJ LeMahieu started at third base on Monday night for the second time this season and just the second time since 2014, but he figures to get plenty of action at the position now that Miguel Andujar is on the 10-day injured list with a right shoulder strain.
The early returns on LeMahieu have been good, both at the plate and defensively at third and second base, but he’ll be tested more at third.
He’ll be one of several Yankees who figure to be thrust into more prominent or different roles with the loss of not just Andujar, but Giancarlo Stanton (left biceps strain) as well.
