Yankees' Jazz Chisholm Jr. Placed on Injured List with Oblique Strain

The New York Yankees have placed starting second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. on the 10-day injured list due to a right oblique strain suffered during a recent game against the Orioles. While Chisholm expressed optimism about a quick recovery, oblique injuries are often unpredictable, and even mild strains can sideline players for nearly a month. His absence is a blow to the Yankees' infield depth, as Chisholm, despite a low batting average, has provided power, speed, and defensive value this season. The team has called up Jorbit Vivas from Triple-A to fill the roster spot, but will also rely on other infielders like Oswald Peraza and Pablo Reyes in the interim. Chisholm's injury comes at a time when the Yankees are already dealing with other lineup challenges, including DJ LeMahieu's ongoing health concerns. The team hopes to weather this stretch and maintain momentum atop the AL East.
