DJ LeMahieu's Rehab Setback Delays Yankees Return

Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu experiences renewed foot soreness during rehab, complicating his recovery timeline.

DJ LeMahieu left his first minor league rehab game early due to soreness in his previously fractured right foot, casting uncertainty on his return to the Yankees.
The setback occurred during a game with Double-A Somerset, where LeMahieu was slated to play several games before potentially rejoining the Yankees next week.
Manager Aaron Boone previously outlined a schedule for LeMahieu's return, but this plan is now in jeopardy following the latest injury development.
LeMahieu's ongoing struggles with injuries have hindered his performance since signing a six-year, $90 million contract with the Yankees in 2021.
The Yankees, currently performing well with a 16-8 record, face challenges integrating LeMahieu back into the lineup amidst his health issues.
