Overview
- Chisholm, sidelined since April 30, will test his right oblique in Tuesday’s full workout, with a rehab stint likely to begin later this week.
- MRI results showed three high-grade tears in his right oblique muscle, prompting a careful approach and a 20-day rehab clock for position players.
- The original four-to-six week recovery estimate puts Chisholm on track to rejoin the Yankees as early as the first week of June if his rehab progresses smoothly.
- Before the injury, Chisholm slashed .181/.304/.410 with seven home runs and six steals, highlighting the offensive lift his return could provide to New York’s AL East lead.
- Fellow injured list member Luis Gil is also nearing a comeback and is slated to make his first mound appearance on Friday following a right lat strain.
