Closing in on return from IL Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Thursday that Chisholm (elbow) is "real close to a return," Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Impact It was Boone earlier this week who described the possibility of Chisholm being activated from the 10-day injured list when first eligible on Saturday as "ambitious." While he might not be quite ready to go that day, Chisholm is in a good spot after getting through a pain-free session of batting practice Wednesday. It's unclear whether he will require a rehab assignment before returning. Chisholm is working his way back from a UCL sprain in his left (non-throwing) elbow.

Takes batting practice Chisholm (elbow) took batting practice on the field ahead of Wednesday's game against the Guardians, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports.

Impact Wednesday marks the first time Chisholm has swung a bat since a sprained left elbow sent him to the injured list last week. Manager Aaron Boone has said it would be "ambitious" to believe the 26-year-old could come off the injured list when eligible Saturday, but he seems to be trending in the right direction.

Impact Chisholm has, by all accounts, bounced back quickly from a UCL sprain in his left (non-throwing) elbow, as he's already resumed fielding grounders and hopes to be cleared to swing a bat soon. However, while the player had expressed optimism about returning when his 10 days are up, his manager is downplaying the possibility. A clearer timetable for Chisholm should be available in the coming days.

Hoping to swing bat soon Chisholm (elbow) said Friday that he expects to start swinging a bat "in a day or two," per MLB.com.

Impact Chisholm's outlook continues to get rosier after initial fears that he may need season-ending surgery following his placement on the injured list Wednesday. The 26-year-old indicated Friday that he hasn't felt any pain since the day after spraining his UCL while sliding into home plate against the White Sox on Aug. 12. Chisholm hasn't yet resumed baseball activities, but that could be coming soon, and in the meantime he's been working with the Yankees' training staff on exercises to strengthen his shoulders. Though it may be overly optimistic, Chisholm suggested that he could be activated from the injured list as soon as he's eligible Aug. 24.

Rest and rehab recommended Chisholm will rest and rehab his left elbow UCL injury following consultations with multiple doctors, Jon Heyman and Greg Joyce of the New York Post report.

Impact Chisholm was diagnosed with UCL damage in his elbow as a result of a slide into home plate earlier this week and was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday. However, surgery has been deemed unnecessary for now and the hope is Chisholm can return sometime in September. It's uncertain when Chisholm will be ready to resume baseball activities, so a timetable is unclear, but he has avoided the worst-case scenario with his injury. Oswaldo Cabrera will continue to fill in at third base for the Yankees while Chisholm is out.
