The move doesn’t come as a total surprise since LeMahieu didn’t exactly have a role for New York after the club finally made the decision earlier this week to bench him in favor of Jazz Chisholm Jr. at second base. They’ll eat the roughly $22 million left on his original six-year contract that runs through the 2026 campaign. The 36-year-old doesn’t offer much defensive versatility at this advanced stage of his career and was hitting just .266/.338/.336 with two homers and 12 RBI across 142 plate appearances this season. It’ll be rookie Jorbit Vivas coming up to take his spot on the Yankees bench.

LeMahieu is 7-for-41 with one extra-base hit and a 14/2 K/BB in his last 15 games. He needs to heat back up if he wants to avoid seeing the Yankees upgrade at either second or third (with Jazz Chisholm Jr. moving back to second) prior to the deadline.

The 36-year-old infielder led off the second inning with a single off of Yoshinobu Yamamoto, advanced to second on a passed ball and to third on a ground out, but the Yankees couldn’t cash him in. He then delivered an RBI single in the fifth inning that extended the Bombers’ lead to 5-1. LeMahieu also singled to right off of Noah Davis in the seventh and delivered a run-scoring double in the ninth inning to cap off the Yankees’ scoring in the game. With the four-hit attack, he’s now hitting .239/.314/.326 with one homer, five RBI and a 12/5 K/BB ratio in 51 plate appearances since returning from the injured list.
