The clock is ticking on DJ LeMahieu and whether he’ll be able to be a part of the Yankees’ postseason plans.
Aaron Boone said Monday that LeMahieu would increase his pregame workload on Tuesday in his attempt to show he can still perform at a high level despite the right toe inflammation that has plagued him for much of the second half.
LeMahieu hasn’t played since Sept. 4, and even before that was significantly impacted by the toe injury.Injured Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu sits in the dugout before the start of the game.Since Aug. 9, LeMahieu is 10-for-78 with no extra-base hits in 85 plate appearances. He struck out 17 times in that 20-game stretch with an OPS of just .307.
But Boone added Carpenter is doing more weight-bearing activities on the foot and the Yankees are keeping him in mind as they shape their roster for the final days of the season.Frankie Montas is expected to start throwing again this week, according to Boone. The Yankees had much bigger plans for Montas when they picked him up from Oakland, but now their playoff rotation is shaping up to be Gerrit Cole, Nestor Cortes, Luis Severino — Monday’s starter — and potentially either Jameson Taillon or Domingo German.
