Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu reported to spring training in good spirits and full health after missing the 2022 postseason due to a toe injury.
LeMahieu decided not to get offseason surgery for the inflammation in his right big/second toe that plagued the infielder in the second half of the 2022 season. The recovery plan has LeMahieu feeling “100 percent” and he said he’s “excited” to be around his teammates again.
“I’m so excited where I’m at right now,” LeMahieu said Sunday morning at the team’s spring training facility. “How the season ended for me last year and our team and just where I’m at physically and mentally and to be back. I feel like I’m in a really good place and really excited to be around the guys again.”
