This off-season’s biggest storyline will be DJ LeMahieu and how the New York Yankees manage to retain his services in the Bronx. LeMahieu extended his value this past season, winning the batting title, hitting .364 with 10 home runs and 27 RBIs.
After signing a two-year, $24 million deal with the Yankees in 2019, he proved that hitting in Colorado was no fluke — he continued his excellence with the Bombers.
After ranking fourth in MVP voting in 2019, earning an All-Star accolade and the silver slugger award, DJ backed it up with an equally impressive performance during an abbreviated 2020 season.
