The Yankees are getting ridiculous value from veteran utility man

All the rage is about Oswaldo Cabrera and his super-utility value, but we shouldn’t forget about the Yankees‘ star veteran infielder, who can play multiple positions at an above-average level. DJ LeMahieu, who just returned from a minor quad injury, is off to a red-hot start this season.

At 34 years old, LeMahieu is hitting .283 with a .353 OBP, slapping two homers and six RBIs across 12 games and 51 plate appearances.

LeMahieu’s value and production are simply unparalleled on the Yankees roster, considering his ability to move from the hot corner to second base and even take over at first base to help give Anthony Rizzo rest.
