Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Getting Game 3 start versus lefty
Rotowire
Chisholm will start at second base and bat seventh Thursday in Game 3 of the American League Wild Card Series against the Red Sox.
The left-handed-hitting Chisholm was absent from the lineup in Game 1 versus southpaw ace Garrett Crochet, but he will be in the lineup Thursday against rookie lefty Connelly Early. Chisholm went 0-for-3 but drew a walk and scored the go-ahead run in the Yankees' Game 2 victory.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Out of lineup against Crochet
Rotowire
Chisholm is absent from the lineup Tuesday for Game 1 of the American League Wild Card Series versus the Red Sox.
The left-handed-hitting Chisholm was an everyday player for the Yankees this season, but with tough southpaw Garrett Crochet on the bump for the Red Sox, Chisholm will yield to Amed Rosario at second base. For what it's worth, Chisholm is 0-for-4 with a 1:3 BB:K in his career versus Crochet.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Cleared for wild-card series
Rotowire
Manager Aaron Boone said that Chisholm (forearm) will be available Tuesday for Game 1 of the Yankees' wild-card series with the Red Sox, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
Though he didn't start in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Orioles after being plunked in the left forearm by a pitch a day earlier, Chisholm was deployed off the bench in the regular-season finale, going 0-for-1 with a strikeout while also playing the final two innings at second base. Chisholm has apparently checked out fine following that contest and will be good to go as the Yankees begin their playoff run. With a tough lefty (Garrett Crochet) on the mound for Boston on Tuesday, however, it wouldn't be surprising if the left-handed-hitting Chisholm was held out of the lineup in favor of Amed Rosario, who has gone 6-for-9 against Crochet in his career.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Out with sore forearm
Rotowire
Chisholm (forearm) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.
The AL East crown is still up for grabs, but Chisholm won't be in the lineup after being hit in the left forearm by a pitch in the fifth inning of Saturday's 6-1 win. X-rays were negative, however, and Chisholm said he considers himself available off the bench Sunday even while he's still dealing with some swelling and soreness, per Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News. With 31 homers and 31 steals on the campaign, Chisholm is one of seven players to join the 30-30 club this season.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: X-rays on forearm negative
Rotowire
X-rays on Chisholm's left forearm came back negative following his removal from Saturday's game against the Orioles.
Chisholm left Saturday's contest after getting hit by a pitch in the fifth inning. He's also slated to undergo a CT scan to confirm the results of his X-ray, but it seems he managed to escape the incident without any structural damage. The Yankees may decide to sideline the 27-year-old infielder for Sunday's series finale to ensure he's fully healthy for the postseason, which would create an opportunity for Jose Caballero to pick up a start in the infield.

Rotowire
Chisholm was removed from Saturday's game against the Orioles after getting hit on the forearm by a pitch, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Reaches 30-30 mark
Rotowire
Chisholm went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's loss to Baltimore.
Chisholm accounted for the Yankees' only runs in the game with his homer to right-center field in the seventh inning. The long ball was his 30th of the campaign (a career high) and, paired with his 30 thefts, put him in rarified air as just the third Yankees player with a 30-30 season (Bobby Bonds and Alfonso Soriano are the others). Juan Soto of the Mets is the only other MLB player to reach the 30-30 mark so far this season.

Chisholm is slashing .259/.283/.414 with three homers, eight RBI, six runs scored and five steals through 15 games in September, and the Yankees will now use a matchup against southpaw Cade Povich as a chance to get the lefty-hitting infielder a day off. Amed Rosario will draw the start at second base instead and bat fifth.

Rotowire
Chisholm went 3-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Red Sox.
The infielder drove in runs with singles in the first and third innings before launching a solo shot off Brayan Bello in the fifth. It was Chisholm's 29th homer of the season, putting him one long ball away from his first career 30-30 campaign. His 75 RBI on the year are also a new career high, and he's three runs away from tying the career-high 74 he set in 2024.

Rotowire
Medical testing on Chisholm's knees came back clean after leaving Thursday's game versus the Astros, and he hopes to be in the lineup Friday against the Blue Jays, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports.

Rotowire
Chisholm exited Thursday's game against the Astros with contusions to both of his knees, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.

The positive news is that he appears to have avoided serious injury, but Chisholm could undergo further imaging to determine the full degree of the injury.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Reaches 25-25 milestone
Rotowire
Chisholm stole his 25th base of the season while going 0-for-3 with two walks and two runs in Friday's 10-2 win over the White Sox.
With Chisholm's stolen base Friday, he's up to 25 thefts to go along with his 26 home runs on the campaign, marking the first time in his career he's reached the 25-25 mark.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Swats 22nd homer
Rotowire
Chisholm went 2-for-5 with a solo home run against Tampa Bay in a 13-3 win Tuesday.
Chisholm's third-inning solo shot was one of nine homers the Yankees clubbed in the contest, tying a franchise record. The long ball was Chisholm's third in his past seven games, a span in which he's also stolen seven bases. While he's batting a modest .238 through 390 plate appearances this season, Chisholm has offered plenty of fantasy value with 22 home runs, 21 thefts, 57 RBI and 56 runs scored while having eligibility in most formats at second base, third base and the outfield.
