New York Yankees third baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. left Monday night's game against the Chicago White Sox with a left elbow injury, and he will have imaging done on Tuesday. Chisholm Jr. has been great so far with the Yankees after recently being traded from the Miami Marlins, so hopefully this injury is nothing serious and he can return to the lineup soon.
“Jazz Chisholm Jr. has a left elbow injury, the Yankees announce,” Bryan Hoch said in a post. “He will undergo further testing tomorrow.”
Jazz Chisholm Jr. is hitting .296 since joining the Yankees. He has played in 14 games, and he has made just one error at third base. New York fans are holding their breath in hopes that this injury is nothing serious.
Before joining the Yankees, Chisholm Jr. had spent his entire career with the Marlins. He had spent four seasons in Miami as he came into the MLB in 2020. Chisholm Jr. struggled during the 2020 season and he didn't play very much, but he had a much better 2021 campaign, and he has been a great player since then.
