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.

Vivas has been summoned to join New York’s active roster in a bench role with DJ LeMahieu being jettisoned a couple days after losing his starting job at second base. The 24-year-old infielder got into 22 games earlier this season in the big leagues, batting .156 (7-for-45) with one homer and four RBI during that span. He’s unlikely to garner enough playing time to make an impact for fantasy purposes.

The Yankees needed to make room on the 40-man roster for Cam Schlittler to make his debut on Wednesday, so Hartlieb was designated for assignment. He will likely clear waivers and return to the Yankees’ minor league system.

Edman missed three consecutive games with the hairline fracture in his right pinkie toe, but he’s feeling well enough to get the nod for Wednesday’s bout with the Brewers. Don’t be surprised if Edman gets some more maintenance days during the summer months.

Donovan drew a walk in the first inning, then put the Cardinals on the board with a two-run homer in the third. Four of his seven homers have come over the last two weeks. The versatile 28-year-old is hitting .296/.368/.438 with 48 runs scored and 34 RBI across 365 plate appearances.

McLain jumped on a first-pitch slider from Marlins’ right-hander Eury Pérez for a 354-foot (96.4 mph EV) solo shot that gave the Reds an early 1-0 lead. That would be the extent of their scoring in the ballgame until they scratched out another with two outs in the ninth. It was also McLain’s only hit as he finished the evening 1-for-4. On the season, he’s now hitting .203/.291/.336 to go along with 10 homers, 32 RBI and 12 stolen bases.
