In Opening Day lineup Wade is starting at second base and batting ninth Thursday against the Nationals.
Impact Though DJ LeMahieu was activated from the injured list and placed on the 30-man roster Thursday, he apparently needs more time to before he's ready to start. As a result, Wade is filling in as the Yankees' Opening Day second baseman. LeMahieu isn't likely to be on the bench for an extended period of time, so Wade's temporary starting role isn't likely to change his season-long projections.

Could open season as starter Wade is the most likely candidate to start at second base if DJ LeMahieu (illness) is not ready to play by Opening Day, Brendan Kuty of NJ Advance Media reports.
Impact Manager Aaron Boone recently praised Wade's value as a defender and baserunner, and those skills should be enough to keep him ahead of Thairo Estrada on the depth chart should LeMahieu need extra time to prepare after testing positive for COVID-19 early in summer camp. When LeMahieu returns, Wade figures to be the top backup at both second base and shortstop, so he could see a fair amount of playing time this season.

Tosses simulated game Paxton threw a two-inning sim game Sunday, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.
Impact On the second day of team workouts, Paxton threw to teammates Gary Sanchez, Miguel Andujar and Tyler Wade, striking out each batter at least once. The outing -- Paxton's first on a dirt mound since undergoing back surgery in February -- is another indication that the southpaw is good to go heading into the regular season. "Felt good, felt healthy," Paxton declared. "It was a good first step for me."
