Overview

  • Jazz Chisholm Jr. exited back-to-back games in Kansas City with neck tightness on June 10 and groin tightness on June 11, prompting his removal from the June 12 lineup and a day-to-day designation.
  • Chisholm voiced frustration over suffering more than five injuries across five seasons despite diligent rehab, diet and training efforts.
  • Manager Aaron Boone labeled Chisholm an emergency-only option after strength tests showed no major damage but declined to guarantee his availability in Boston.
  • Giancarlo Stanton wrapped up his third rehab game with Double-A Somerset on June 12 and is under consideration to rejoin the Yankees this weekend, though his Boston debut remains uncertain.
  • The club is weighing roster shifts—including giving Ben Rice catching starts and adjusting J.C. Escarra’s role—to integrate Stanton and cover for Chisholm’s uncertain status.
