    • X-rays negative on Vinnie Pasquantino’s leg
      X-rays came back negative on Vinnie Pasquantino’s left leg.

      Advice: Pasquantino is officially day-to-day with a lower left leg contusion. It’s a massive relief for the Royals, and fantasy managers, as the 26-year-old first baseman appears to have avoided serious injury following a collision with Twins center fielder Byron Buxton during Tuesday’s contest in Minnesota. It’s possible he’ll get a couple days off to recover, but is unlikely to require an extended absence. Rotoworld Tuesday, 6:17 pm
       
    • Exits with apparent injury
      Pasquantino was removed from Tuesday's game against the Twins due to an apparent leg injury, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

      Advice: Pasquantino came up limping after a collision with Byron Buxton, who was attempting to leg out an infield single during the third inning. The Royals will take a closer look at their first baseman in the clubhouse and should offer an update on his status relatively soon. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 5:40 pm
       
    • Vinnie Pasquantino exits contest with injury
      Vinnie Pasquantino left Tuesday’s game against the Twins with an apparent injury.

      Advice: Pasquantino appeared to suffer some sort of leg injury when Byron Buxton came into contact with him while attempting to beat out an infield single during the third inning of Tuesday’s showdown at Target Field. There should be an update on his status at some point shortly. Rotoworld Tuesday, 5:38 pm
       
    • Officially activated
      The Yankees reinstated LeMahieu (foot) from the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

      Advice: A fracture of LeMahieu's right foot has kept him on the injured list all season, but he will return to make his season debut Tuesday while starting at third base and batting ninth. The 35-year-old veteran will act as New York's primary third baseman going forward, though he's expected to receive a handful of off days initially as the Yankees attempt to ease him back into action.

    • Yankees activate DJ LeMahieu for season debut
      Yankees activated INF DJ LeMahieu from the 60-day injured list.

      Advice: The saga is finally over. LeMahieu will make his season debut on Tuesday night following a two-mont absence recovering from a fracture in his right foot, and a couple setbacks along the way. The 35-year-old veteran figures to draw most of his starts at the hot corner moving forward and bat near the bottom of New York’s lineup. Rotoworld Tuesday, 4:39 pm

    • DJ LeMahieu will hit ninth, play third in return
      DJ LeMahieu will hit ninth and play third base in his return from the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

      Advice: LeMahieu will make his season debut after missing exactly two months of the season with a fracture in his right foot. The 35-year-old could have some rust to shake off from such a long absence — even with a lengthy rehab assignment — but hitting ninth will give him a chance to be driven in by the top of the New York lineup.

    • Slated to bat ninth in return
      Yankees manager Aaron Boone said in an interview on Jomboy Media's "Talkin' Yanks" podcast that LeMahieu (foot) will start at third base and bat ninth Tuesday versus the Angels in his season debut.

      Advice: LeMahieu had appeared in line for leadoff duties with the Yankees before suffering a non-displaced fracture of his right foot shortly before Opening Day. However, Anthony Volpe looks to have a tight grip on the leadoff job now, pushing LeMahieu to the bottom of the batting order for the time being. LeMahieu is slated to be the team's primary third baseman, although he will be given extra off days initially as the Yankees ease him back into action. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 9:59 am

    • Shifting to 60-day IL
      The Yankees transferred LeMahieu (foot) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Saturday.

      Advice: LeMahieu's move to the 60-day IL has no impact on his expected return date of May 28. It will, however, free up a 40-man roster spot for Kevin Smith, who was called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to replace infielder Jon Berti (calf) on the 26-man active roster. LeMahieu will operate as New York's primary third baseman once he returns from the IL, though he'll receive more days off initially as he eases his way back from a non-displaced fracture of his right foot.

    • Yankees transfer DJ LeMahieu to 60-day IL
      Yankees transferred INF DJ LeMahieu to the 60-day injured list.

      Advice: The 35-year-old infielder is still on track to return to the Yankees on Tuesday, this was done as a procedural move to free up a spot on the team’s 40-man roster for Kevin Smith to provide infield depth over the weekend now that Jon Berti (calf) landed on the injured list. Expect Smith to be designated for assignment once again early next week to make room for LeMahieu’s return. Rotoworld Saturday, 1:15 pm
