The New York Yankees are moving their best defensive second baseman back to second base. Jazz Chisholm Jr., who has started his last 28 games at third base, is going back to second for Tuesday's series opener with the Seattle Mariners at Yankee Stadium.

The New York Yankees are set to move Jazz Chisholm Jr. back to second base amid the team’s defensive struggles. Chisholm was moved to third base this season and he had struggled, committing 6 errors in 29 games. The 27-year-old had made it clear he is a second baseman, and now the Yankees are moving him back to his original position.

Manager Aaron Boone told "Talkin’ Yanks" that Chisholm will return to second base Tuesday night against the Mariners, with Oswald Peraza stepping in at third. It’s a move that reshuffles the Yankees’ infield. That also puts DJ LeMahieu back on the bench, at least for now.
