What will swing the Yankees’ trade-deadline calculus on adding a righty hitter
NY Post
Let’s take a few Yankees developments and get to a question: Just how much do they need to add a righty hitter from outside the organization?
Development 1: DJ LeMahieu produced four hits on Sunday in a win over the Dodgers. He had three hits on May 24. In between, he went 0-for-15 with seven strikeouts.
Development 2: Jasson Dominguez suffered what the Yankees called a left thumb contusion, also on Sunday.
Development 3: Jazz Chisholm Jr., who last played in the majors April 30, is due to be activated off the injured list (oblique) as early as Tuesday — to play third base.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
