New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that third baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. is likely headed to the injured list because of a UCL injury in his left elbow.
It is not known if Chisholm, who left the Yankees’ 12-2 loss to the Chicago White Sox on Monday, will need surgery. The 26-year-old was injured while sliding into home plate in the fifth inning but remained in the game. He was replaced by Ben Rice during his next plate appearance in the seventh inning.
Chisholm has given New York an immediate spark since he was acquired from the Miami Marlins for three prospects on July 27. He became the first player in franchise history to hit seven homers in his first 12 games with the club.
Chisholm spent his first four-plus seasons in the major leagues with the Marlins, hitting .246 with 66 homers and 205 RBIs in 403 games. He is batting .316 with seven homers and 11 RBIs in 14 games with the Yankees.
