Another one bites the dust.
The Yankees have placed DJ LeMahieu on the injured list with a left thumb sprain — he injured the thumb last night in an at bat against the Red Sox.
It really is a damn shame because so far this season, LeMahieu had been hitting .411/.456/.534 good for a 177wRC+, which is bonkers. He was probably the team’s MVP of the season so far, and now he’s going to be unavailable for at least 10 days. Don’t be fooled though, all hand injuries are tough, and there is a possibility that this things lingers on.
