BRONX, N.Y. — The New York Yankees are getting someone back from the injured list for a change. The team confirmed DJ LeMahieu has been reinstated from the IL Saturday.
LeMahieu will leadoff and play third base Saturday afternoon against the New York Mets.

Prior to landing on the IL, LeMahieu was slashing .411 AVG/.456 OBP/.990 OPS.
LeMahieu’s return certainly provides the Yankee lineup more length and stability.
In a corresponding move, Miguel Andujar has been optioned to the alternate site.
