We've got to find out and keep running him out there. He's earned that and with where we are right now roster-wise, we've got to give him that opportunity to lock in... He's gonna continue to get opportunities here.
Among hitters with at least 140 plate appearances, LeMahieu's .472 OPS ranks fifth worst while his .149 wOBA against pitches over the heart of the plate places him dead last by a huge margin.
If and when the Yankees realize how untenable it is to keep giving LeMahieu playing time, there are trade candidates like Isaac Paredes and Matt Chapman, although challenges exist in acquiring them.
Luis Rengifo of the Angels is mentioned as a potential option, though concerns about unsustainable success indicators and Isiah Kiner-Falefa's suggestion despite reservations due to past performance.
