Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Displays power, speed in spring win
Rotowire
Chisholm went 2-for-3 with a home run, three total RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's Grapefruit League victory against Philadelphia.
Chisholm is slashing just .179/.273/.359 this spring, but he reminded Yankees fans (and fantasy managers) of his dynamic skill set with a two-run homer and a swipe of second base Wednesday. The 27-year-old posted career highs with 24 long balls and 40 thefts last season, and he will look to build upon those numbers in his first full campaign with New York in 2025. Chisholm is slated to be the Yankees' primary second baseman, and he's a candidate to bat leadoff for the team this year after hitting mostly in the middle of the order following his trade to New York last season.
Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Launches first spring homer
Rotowire
Chisholm went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run in Sunday's Grapefruit League loss to St. Louis.
Chisholm had been struggling entering Sunday, going 2-for-19 through his first eight spring games. Part of his struggles have been due to strikeouts -- he's fanned eight times through nine games -- but Chisholm is also tied for second on the team with four walks. The versatile veteran is penciled in to start at second base for the Yankees this season, and he and catcher Austin Wells are the leading candidates to bat leadoff when the campaign kicks off.
