The Yankees third baseman is enjoying a sterling start with his new team.
In 13 games with the New York Yankees, third baseman Jazz Chisholm has been nothing short of sensational.
Since the Miami Marlins traded him to the Yankees on July 27, Chisholm has slashed .296/.345/.704 with seven home runs and 11 RBIs—completely altering the narrative of his season. The sample size is small, but Chisholm's explosion has given him room to call out players who, in a poll published by"What was it, like 11 players? I definitely knew who they were talking to, too. It wasn't hard to find out who the players were," ChisholmDeesha Thosar of Fox Sports in a Monday profile. "I didn't really care. Who cares what somebody else has to say about me? If he really voted that I'm overrated, that means you got something in your psyche, brother.
"Like me, I'm not going out and voting who's an overrated player because I don't even know who an overrated player is. I don't look at people that hard," he said. "I only look at people who are good, I'm sorry. So you call me overrated, I gotta be good. That's how I look at it."Patrick Andres is a staff writer on the Breaking and Trending News team at Sports Illustrated.
