Part 2/8:
DJ LeMahieu is battling a calf injury, making his availability uncertain.
Luis Heal, the anticipated 2024 American League Rookie of the Year, is dealing with shoulder tightness.
These setbacks come at a pivotal moment, as the Yankees rely heavily on Stanton's bat and LeMahieu's versatility. With LeMahieu historically prone to injuries, the Yankees find themselves in a precarious situation, particularly at third base, where untested players like Oswald Peraza and Oswaldo Cabrera may fill the gap.
