The New York Yankees made perhaps the most dramatic roster move of their season on Wednesday when they designated veteran infielder DJ LeMahieu for assignment.

The New York Yankees decided to designate DJ LeMahieu for assignment on Wednesday. He was released after clearing waivers on Thursday. Aaron Judge spoke on the move.

The New York Yankees released two-time MLB batting champion DJ LeMahieu, ending his seven-year tenure with the team, they announced Thursday.

The New York Yankees designated DJ LeMahieu for assignment, cutting him loose with nearly two years left on his deal.

Aaron Judge was disappointed to see D.J. LeMahieu depart New York this week, and the Yankees captain also addressed rumors that he helped the veteran infielder remain on the roster last year.

DJ LeMahieu has been cut by the New York Yankees with almost $22 million remaining on his contract, one day after the two-time batting champion got demoted to the bench.

The New York Yankees officially released DJ LeMahieu today after designating him for assignment on Wednesday. Aaron Judge addressed a rumor about LeMahieu.

The Yankees moved on from DJ LeMahieu Wednesday when the veteran infielder was designated for assignement with about $22 million left on a six-year contract.

LeMahieu was clogging up second base in New York, which needed to be opened up for Jazz Chisholm Jr. to return to his natural position. The Yankees didn't think LeMahieu could handle third, so they cut him loose and ate the last $22 million on his contract.
