DJ LeMahieu's return to the New York Yankees may be on the horizon as he reported improvement following a cortisone injection. Manager Aaron Boone shared that LeMahieu is feeling better and is set to resume his rehab assignment with Double-A Somerset, a positive sign for the veteran infielder who has been sidelined since March due to a calf strain.

LeMahieu's injury has persistently disrupted his season, pushing back his timeline and leaving the Yankees scrambling at third base. With Jazz Chisholm Jr. also potentially facing an IL stint, the Yankees' infield depth is stretched thin. Oswaldo Cabrera has stepped in during LeMahieu's absence, but his return could greatly stabilize the Yankees' lineup with veteran experience and right-handed hitting.

Jazz Chisholm Jr. exited the Yankees game against the Orioles due to a right side injury during a spectacular offensive display from the Yankees. The team scored five runs in the first inning, including four home runs from Trent Grisham, Aaron Judge, Ben Rice, and Cody Bellinger. Chisholm Jr. felt discomfort after a foul ball and had to be replaced after hitting a double. Though he continued playing briefly, he was replaced by Oswald Peraza after the first inning. The Yankees' power surge marked their second instance this season of hitting three consecutive home runs to start a game.

The New York Yankees have made history by becoming the first team to open a game with three consecutive home runs more than once in a single MLB season. On Tuesday night, Trent Grisham, Aaron Judge, and Ben Rice smashed homers off Baltimore's Kyle Gibson, following a similar feat against Milwaukee earlier in the season. Both times, the Yankees added a fourth home run in the first inning, solidifying their unprecedented achievement of four first-inning home runs twice in one season.

Despite the offensive fireworks, the Yankees faced a setback when Jazz Chisholm Jr. left the game due to discomfort. He managed to hit a double before exiting, raising concerns about his health as the season progresses. The Yankees' ability to maintain their explosive power while managing player injuries will be crucial as they strive for postseason success.

As the final weekend of April approaches, MLB fans are treated to a robust slate of games, with 12 matchups set to begin after 7:05 p.m. ET. For DFS enthusiasts, standout pitching options include Logan Gilbert of Seattle, who boasts impressive stats with a 2.22 FIP and 6.83 K/BB rate, and Luis Severino of the Athletics, who faces a struggling White Sox lineup. Seth Lugo of Kansas City also offers value against a power-deficient Astros team.

Top hitting targets this weekend feature Jazz Chisholm, who may be hitting .165 but has 7 home runs and 6 stolen bases this season, and Steven Kwan, who has shown newfound power this year. For those on a budget, Randy Arozarena of the Mariners presents an enticing option, especially in a favorable matchup against the Indians. Stacking opportunities arise with the Reds at Coors Field, where right-handed batters Matt McLain and Austin Hays could thrive against Kyle Freeland.
