New York Yankees third baseman DJ LeMahieu will miss the start of the season with a foot injury.

General manager Brian Cashman confirmed Monday that the two-time batting champ is headed to the injured list with a bone bruise in his right foot.

The injury has been “a slow go on the recovery side,” Cashman said, per the Bergen Record.

LeMahieu, 35, is batting .222 with one double and three RBIs in 10 games in spring training.

New York opens the regular season on the road Thursday against the Houston Astros.

LeMahieu batted a career-worst .243 with 15 homers and 44 RBIs in 136 games with the Yankees last season.

A three-time All-Star and four-time Gold Glove winner, LeMahieu is a career .292 hitter with 122 homers and 625 RBIs in 1,561 games with the Chicago Cubs (2011), Colorado Rockies (2012-18) and Yankees.
