Rotowire
Chisholm went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run and two RBI in Saturday's 9-4 loss to the Pirates.
He got the Yankees on the board with a fifth-inning solo shot off Mike Burrows, but the Bucs already had a 4-0 lead at that point. Chisholm reached 40 steals on the season Friday, and he now sits one homer short of 25 with one game left to play on the regular-season schedule.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Back from IL
Rotowire
The Yankees reinstated Chisholm (elbow) from the 10-day injured list ahead of Friday's game against the Rockies.
The 26-year-old landed on the injured list in mid-August due to a UCL sprain in his left (non-throwing) elbow, but he's ready to rejoin New York after spending the 10-day minimum on the shelf. Chisholm has been a significant contributor in 14 games since being acquired from the Marlins, as he has a .316/.361/.702 slash line with seven homers, five steals, 11 RBI and 13 runs in 61 plate appearances with the Yankees.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Returning Friday
Rotowire
Chisholm (elbow) will be activated from the 10-day injured list Friday, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.
Although manager Aaron Boone said earlier in the week that it would be "ambitious" to expect Chisholm to return from the IL after a minimum-length stay, it now appears that is exactly what the 26-year-old will do. Before landing on the injured list, he had slashed .316/.361/.702 with seven homers and 11 RBI across 14 games as a Yankee, and he figures to immediately slide back into his previous role as New York's everyday third baseman. Oswald Peraza was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday to create a roster spot for Chisholm.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Closing in on return from IL
Rotowire
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Thursday that Chisholm (elbow) is "real close to a return" from the 10-day injured list, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Earlier this week, Boone described the possibility of Chisholm being activated from the IL when first eligible Saturday as "ambitious," but the skipper may have since changed his stance. While he might not be quite ready to go Saturday, Chisholm is in a good spot after getting through a pain-free session of batting practice Wednesday. It's unclear whether he will require a rehab assignment before returning. Chisholm is working his way back from a UCL sprain in his left (non-throwing) elbow.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Hoping to swing bat soon
Rotowire
Chisholm (elbow) said Friday that he expects to start swinging a bat "in a day or two," per MLB.com.
Chisholm's outlook continues to get rosier after initial fears that he may need season-ending surgery following his placement on the injured list Wednesday. The 26-year-old indicated Friday that he hasn't felt any pain since the day after spraining his UCL while sliding into home plate against the White Sox on Aug. 12. Chisholm hasn't yet resumed baseball activities, but that could be coming soon, and in the meantime he's been working with the Yankees' training staff on exercises to strengthen his shoulders. Though it may be overly optimistic, Chisholm suggested that he could be activated from the injured list as soon as he's eligible Aug. 24.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Rest and rehab recommended
Rotowire
Chisholm will rest and rehab his left elbow UCL injury following consultations with multiple doctors, Jon Heyman and Greg Joyce of the New York Post report.
Chisholm was diagnosed with UCL damage in his elbow as a result of a slide into home plate earlier this week and was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday. However, surgery has been deemed unnecessary for now, and the hope is Chisholm can return some time in September. It's uncertain when he will be ready to resume baseball activities, so he lacks a clearer timeline, but he has avoided the worst-case scenario. Oswaldo Cabrera will continue to fill in at third base for the Yankees while Chisholm is out.
