Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Will return for nightcap Tuesday
Rotowire
Chisholm (thumb) said Tuesday that he will be activated from the 10-day injured list before the second game of the doubleheader versus the Rays, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Chisholm sustained a right thumb sprain just two weeks ago, but he will skip a rehab assignment and be thrown back into the mix beginning with Tuesday's nightcap. The impending free agent had gotten off to a hot start in September before getting hurt, going 6-for-18 with one home run. Anthony Volpe has played well while filling in for Chisholm at second base and could get a look at third base after Chisholm returns.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Could return Tuesday
Rotowire
Manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that Chisholm (thumb) could be reinstated from the injured list as early as Tuesday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
The second baseman landed on the shelf after sustaining a thumb sprain Sept. 8 versus Colorado, and it appears he'll be able to rejoin the Yankees after missing a little more than the 10-day minimum. Chisholm had a hot start to September prior to the injury, going 6-for-18 with a homer, two walks and three runs through five games.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Expected back next week
Rotowire
Manager Aaron Boone said Friday that Chisholm (thumb) is expected to return from the injured list during New York's upcoming homestand, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Chisholm has been on the shelf since Sept. 10 due to a sprained right thumb, and although Boone didn't give an exact date for when Chisholm will be activated, the second baseman appears to have made encouraging progress in his recovery. He'll presumably spend the rest of the weekend ramping up baseball activities before the team determines his availability for Tuesday's series opener against the Rays.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Move to IL made official
Rotowire
The Yankees placed Chisholm on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a right thumb sprain.
Chisholm was injured Tuesday on a slide into second base. He will be shut down from all baseball activities for 7-to-10 days before being re-evaluated, and the Yankees could know by that point whether he has a chance to make it back before the end of the regular season. Anthony Volpe has taken Chisholm's roster spot and could share second base with Jose Caballero while Chisholm is shelved.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Heading to IL with sprained thumb
Rotowire
Chisholm has been diagnosed with a right thumb sprain and will be placed on the 10-day injured list, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.
Chisholm suffered the injury on a slide into second base during Tuesday's game versus the Rockies. He will be shut down from baseball activities for 7-to-10 days before being re-evaluated. Given the timing of the injury, it's possible Chisholm won't make it back before the end of the regular season. Anthony Volpe could replace Chisholm on the active roster, and if that happens Volpe is an option to share starts at second base with Jose Caballero.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Sitting out with thumb injury
Rotowire
Chisholm (thumb) is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Rockies.
Chisholm had to be lifted from Tuesday's contest against the Rockies after hurting his right thumb on a slide into second base. He is listed among the Yankees' reserves on the lineup card, so Chisholm has avoided a trip to the injured list for the time being. Jose Caballero is stepping in at second base in Chisholm's stead.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Managing thumb injury
Rotowire
Chisholm was removed from Tuesday's game against the Rockies due to a thumb injury, Chelsea Janes of SNY.tv reports.
Chisholm injured his thumb while sliding into second base during the top of the ninth, and he was removed from the game in the bottom of the inning. Manager Aaron Boone said the 28-year-old's thumb was still feeling numb after the game, so the team will wait to see how he feels Wednesday before determining his availability. Jose Caballero would presumably pick up starts at second base if Chisholm is unable to play.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Swipes two bags in loss Thursday
Rotowire
Chisholm went 1-for-2 with a walk and two stolen bases in a loss to Houston on Thursday.
Chisholm's speed was on display throughout the contest -- his one hit was an infield single, and he swiped second base following that knock and after a fifth-inning walk. The veteran infielder has stolen at least one base in three consecutive contests and has recorded seven thefts across his past 10 games. That's pushed Chisholm up to 38 stolen bases on the season, two shy of his career-high mark and second overall in the majors this year.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Fills box score in victory Wednesday
Rotowire
Chisholm went 3-for-3 with a double, a walk, a run, an RBI and a stolen base in a 9-3 win over the Astros on Wednesday.
Chisholm was a key part of a Yankees offensive barrage that included 13 hits and nine runs. After beginning August with a .148 batting average over his first 17 games, Chisholm has come alive at the plate of late, collecting three multi-hit efforts over his past four contests and slashing .571/.625/.929 with one homer, two doubles, four RBI and three stolen bases during that span. He's been as good on the basepaths as ever this year with 36 thefts through 123 games, though Chisholm's current .708 OPS is on pace for a career-worst mark (excluding his brief 21-contest cup of coffee during his first taste of the big leagues in 2020).
Chisholm went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and an additional run scored in Sunday's 8-3 win over the Blue Jays.
Chisholm extended New York's lead to 7-2 in the seventh inning with a two-out, two-strike blast off lefty Brendon Little, his 18th homer this season and first in 15 games. Chisholm has now gone 4-for-8 with a pair of extra-base hits in his last two contests after going just 4-for-25 (.160) in his prior eight games. Overall, he's slashing .220/.297/.397 through 474 plate appearances this year with 60 runs scored, 51 RBI and seven stolen bases.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Resting Sunday
Rotowire
Chisholm is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.
Chisholm, who is slashing just .137/.254/.196 over his last 15 games, will ride the pine for Sunday's series finale. Jose Caballero will man second base and bat ninth for the Yankees.
Chisholm went 1-for-3 with a solo home run during Tuesday's 2-0 win over St. Louis.
Tuesday's game was a low-scoring affair, and Chisholm's solo long ball in the second inning turned out to be the game-winning run for the Yankees. It was the 17th long ball of the season for Chisholm and his first since his two-homer effort against the Pirates on July 20. He has a .695 OPS with 30 steals and 46 RBI over 420 plate appearances this season.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Back in action Saturday
Rotowire
Chisholm is starting at second base and batting fifth Saturday against the Cubs.
Chisholm exited Thursday's contest against the White Sox after cramping up, and he was held out of Friday's series opener against the Cubs. However, manager Aaron Boone stated ahead of Friday's contest that Chisholm was "fully active," so he was likely just held out because Chicago sent a lefty starter to the mound. All seems to be well with Chisholm given his return to the lineup Saturday.
