DJ LeMahieu is one of the most valuable infielders in baseball again. After an average 2.0 fWAR performance in 2021, he has already blown past that production with 3.7 fWAR through 447 plate appearances. With a 139 wRC+, he is hovering right around his production from his first season in the Bronx, though it looks just a little different than it did back in 2019.
There is no question DJ was hurt last year. His lateral movement on defense was compromised at every position, and he was unable to get pitches in the middle of the plate off the ground.
