MIAMI — DJ LeMahieu remained out of the lineup on Saturday, but the Yankees are hopeful he should be able to avoid the injured list.

The veteran infielder missed his third straight game because of right calf tightness, which popped up on Wednesday in Chicago.
While manager Aaron Boone said he was available off the bench, he didn’t play and it remains to be seen when he might return to the lineup.
“DJ seems to be doing alright,” Boone said before the Yankees’ 3-1 loss to the Marlins at loanDepot Park. “So far, it does look like we’re going to avoid the IL with it.”
LeMahieu has been able to go through pregame workouts the past two days. After he was only available in an emergency on Friday, LeMahieu was available on Saturday and Boone said he would have used him had the game gotten deeper.We’ll see about that,” he said. “But I would expect him to be available.”
Relievers Scott Effross and Lou Trivino, both of whom are rehabbing in Tampa following Tommy John surgery, joined the Yankees in Miami this weekend
