The Yankees plan to activate Jazz Chisholm Jr. on Friday, a source confirmed.
Oswald Peraza was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after Thursday’s game as the corresponding move.
A few hours earlier, Boone said Chisholm, whose first eligible day to be activated is Friday, was “real close.”
New York Yankees third base Jazz Chisholm Jr. (13) on the dugout fence during the first inning when the New York Yankees played the Cleveland Indians Tuesday, August 20, 2024 at Yankee Stadium in Bronx, NY.
Chisholm was set to hit off more velocity Thursday.
A rehab assignment won’t be required for Chisholm, who has been out since Aug. 12 with a sprained UCL in his left (non-throwing) elbow.
