The New York Yankees shocked the world of baseball this afternoon when they announced the decision to designate infielder DJ LeMahieu for assignment. The decision came after LaMahieu was benched — a decision he was very unhappy with, according to reports — in favor of moving Jazz Chisholm Jr. back to second. As the trade deadline approaches, this decision makes one thing abundantly clear: the Yankees are not playing around. Utility man and typical third baseman Oswaldo Cabrera is out for possibly the entire season after suffering a left ankle fracture in May. While New York had been playing Chisholm at third, he’s really best at second base, evidenced by his performance in Tuesday night’s dominant 10-3 victory against the Seattle Mariners.
