Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. is placed on the injured list with a sprained right thumb, sidelining him from baseball activities. Multiple reports say the team shuts him down for roughly 7 to 10 days as he recovers.
Yankees manager Aaron Boone announces the move, with sources describing it as a 10-day IL placement due to the thumb injury. The reports connect the timing of the absence to the Yankees’ push in the AL East, as they continue chasing the division title. While outlets use slightly different wording—such as “sprained right thumb” versus general “sprained thumb”—they agree on the core facts of the injury type, the IL designation, and the approximate duration of his time away.
Across coverage, there is no indication in the provided articles of additional complications or changes to the injury beyond the thumb sprain and the immediate IL decision.
