The New York Yankees find themselves in a dire situation as they enter a six-game losing streak, now compounded by the absence of their standout third baseman, Jazz Chisholm Jr. The 27-year-old is sidelined with a shoulder injury that hampers his throwing ability more than his batting. With Chisholm out, Oswald Peraza has been given the nod at third base against the New York Mets this Sunday.

Jazz has been one of the few bright spots for the Yankees this season. Since his return from the injured list on June 3, he boasts an impressive .308 batting average and a .969 OPS, alongside eight home runs and 21 RBIs. His recent performance has only heightened the frustration among fans, particularly regarding managerial decisions that leave them questioning the team's urgency during a losing streak.
