this dude should be mvp! Amazing what he has done. he plays amazing defense! not only at 2nd, but he plays 3rd and first base as well. and he is outstanding at the plate. he is doing it on both ends of the field on such a high level
@@sittingbackandwatchingital3845 I mean that's just flat out wrong.. DJ has 3 gold gloves to Manny's 2 and has 3 defensive titles to Manny's. Plus DJ is literally used in every infield position and plays it amazingly. The only thing Manny has on him is a pay cheque
When was the last time the Yankees had this many clutch hitters in their line-up? LeMahieu deserves all the prays for his consistently hot hitting all season. It’s been much fun to watch. Plus playing 3-different defensive positions flawlessly. Just outstanding man!
@@Rambomode92 but they have given trout the MVP on more than one occasion and on those occasions the angels were either barely a playoff team or out of the playoffs all together so he can go a year without an MVP award. It won't hurt his legacy at all
Extend him for 5 years. He is a pure old fashioned baseball player. Just hits the ball and hits it well forget about homeruns he just gets hit after hit after hit. I LOVE DJ LEMAHIEU ❤️💪🏻
Yeah you can forget that. He's on the Yankees now. He will never come back to Colorado until like he is in his 40's or something. I am pretty sure he will spend the rest of his prime on the yankees
This man was a Godsend. I asked for a .300 average hitter and we got it. Clearly the team MVP this year. Extend this man! Need him for the next playoff push plus more.
I would probably attribute that to his good eye and ability to find the one he wants. He can always foul balls or let them go when they're bad. Combine that with his insane ability to take the ball to opposite field, you get a nasty hitter.
For real. I don’t think they even had a 300 hitter last year and were terrible in clutch situations. This dude just knocks InTwo out RBIs like it’s cool.
What is it about the Pinstripes that bring out the best in players? I never heard much about DJ lemahieu in Colorado until he became a ney york yankee. Goes to show that the Cowboys aren't America's Team The Yankees are
TreyJames 19 small market vs large market. Rockies fans know he’s capable of this every night. With more nationally televised games, the rest of the country sees it too.
East Coast bias, what? 6 Years with the Rockies pretty much doing this every year plus his gold glove defense: crickets. Not even ONE SEASON with the Yankees and he gets an 11 minute video all to himself? Just shows how invisible players are when they don the purple and white. Imagine the press Arenado would have had in Yankees pinstripes. Not taking anything away from DJ. He's been a household favorite since 2012. It's just frustrating seeing how truly different the treatment is... And how clearly the Rockies are viewed by the media as a Subpar baseball organization. The Monforts and Jeff Bridich owe Denver a championship. In fact they owe us two.
Yeah, you're not wrong. DJ is definitely getting more attention in NY, especially when he came to the rescue all over the infield on defense and showed the batting title was no fluke. No doubt Cashman picked up on his stats when it came to hitting opposite field fastballs, either. GO DJ!
East Coast bias but especially NY bias. Most of the national sports media based in NY. The only teams out west that consistently get a lot of pub are the the ones in LA ....where the West coast national media is based...shocking!
Kathleen Field nice I’m not taking anything away from him. He’s a great hitter. But Yankees stadium is an easy park to hit at. Even I could hit a homer there lol.
DJ’s entire season: “Base hit for Lemahieu! Of course, there were runners in scoring position!”
He was awesome with RISP. He had a MVP season.
this dude should be mvp!
Amazing what he has done.
he plays amazing defense!
not only at 2nd, but he plays 3rd and first base as well.
and he is outstanding at the plate.

He should but won't, a pretty good fish is playing at the Angels
Yeah but there’s a specific Trout fish worth $430,000,000 that will take MVP
@@mattfigueroa1 DJ is having the better year but sadly MLB favors Trout. DJ deserves it.
Are u dumb, Dj is the most overrated player on the Yankees and he not should not be a mvp candidate.

Who needs Machado when you've got this gem right here
You mean Manny and his .268 average ?

We wouldnt be where we are without him
Most underrated comment on this thread. LGY!!!
DJ : Talk less, do more.
Fax I’ve never seen him speak and I’ve seen him play 3-4 times in person in Colorado and New York
As my favorite player said it (the Kraken) DJ is a MACHINE
GARRRYYYY

savage in the box in the thumbnail
No way we would have won AL East without him.

Better than Machado...
925 Evil Empire salary included, it’s not even close
“A pretty good team, the Seattle Mariners”
A guy who never strikes out. What more do they need?
He was still good when he was on the rockies
He'll hit over 25 homers and .300+ easily if hes playing all his home games in Yankee stadium
Just as good if not better
Why Colorado didn’t even offer him a contract I’ll never know
Its a thing of beauty to watch that man hit.
AL MVP right here but I'm sure they'll give it to their golden boy Trout as usual
because trout still is better.........
@@keithdixon2300 might be so but I never understood giving a player an MVP title when they're on a losing team

Oh my god I love him 😍
I miss him so much, I’m a Rockies fan lol.
stuff like 3:53 is what makes this guy so consistent. that's some video game bat speed and coordination
that's rocco baldelli in MVP 05 level
we’ll never see this DJ ever again
He’s become my favorite hitter the last couple years. He’s a guy who knows what quiet confidence means.
Best hitter in Baseball MVP!
you are so slow. his ops+ was lower than like 20 people.
I liked the part where he was an underrated, unexpected, unrespected, clutch & power hitter.
He didn't just have the Colorado juice - he had his own.
Also an incredible fielder with nerves of steel.
I love Judge - but D.J is my favorite for sure.
Imagine if DJ still played like this
IDK where this dude came from, but thank GOD he's here
He was a Rockie, got a batting title and Gold Glove
DJ rocks the house!
DJ’s numbers were off the charts last year. What a steal by Cashman.
He has been on my fantasy team last two years.....love the guy
1:44 looks like pitcher says the game like MICHAEL kay
LE MACHINEEEEEE, god this mad me so happy during quarantine. He undoubtedly will be a core part of the next Yankees dynasty this decade.
If I was Cash I would at least see what he would want to stay.
Come back to Colorado please.... We need you lol 😂
Yeah you can forget that. He's on the Yankees now. He will never come back to Colorado until like he is in his 40's or something. I am pretty sure he will spend the rest of his prime on the yankees
He’ll retire a yankee thank you very much
Yankees: DJ IS OURS NOW!!
The Rockies didn’t even give him an offer
DJ is a great ball player..he's a good lead off hitter..with power.shows glove..and looks like he's having fun out there..GO YANKEES..
Simple attack- shoot fastballs to the opposite field so when there is offspeed he can pull it
"a pretty good team, the Seattle Mariners" hahaha
They were good for about 10 games at the beginning of the season
Didn’t they start 13-1?
i'm a Yankee fan but I live in Seattle, every Mariners fan i knew said it'd be a fluke and damn they were right
How did the Rockies not resign this guy? As a Yankee fan I’m glad they didn’t.
Born to be a New York Yankee!!! Stay Humble 26
This man was a Godsend. I asked for a .300 average hitter and we got it. Clearly the team MVP this year. Extend this man! Need him for the next playoff push plus more.
He is so good
this guy should be MVP
yeah right. he only had 5.9 war, mvp type season is seven plus. semien and trout had a war above 8, bregman had a war above nine.
This guy went to my high school, trained with my bio teacher. He said he wasn’t that good of a student 😆
He's a savage
#LeMACHINE
Dj the Machine Lemeheau the yanks should definitely keep this gem
1:38 you can hear the pitcher curse and know it’s tie game 😂
Lmao who gave this a thumbs down ?!?!? MVP !!!!!
yeah right. shouldn't even be top 3, his WAR reflects his play compared to semien, trout, and bregman.
DJ Lemiux Beast MODE
his tracking is great at the plate
Today’s game was a classic
BOSTON BOUND!
Can’t believe teams didn’t fight for this guy

The modern day Lou Gehrig for the Yankee's... Results versus bravado....!
I wish the Mets paid this guy. Dude was a beast in Colorado
He’s the best hitter in the league
Good👍 DJ LeMahieu ⭐
Sees more pitches in the zone more than anyone else in that lineup.
I would probably attribute that to his good eye and ability to find the one he wants. He can always foul balls or let them go when they're bad. Combine that with his insane ability to take the ball to opposite field, you get a nasty hitter.
The Machine is like a Goddamn Terminator except not from the Future and not made by Cyberdyne!!!
DJ Le Machine
Notice how in all of these hits Gio Urshela came in to score lol
The Yankees have been in need of a consistent, disciplined hitter who can kickstart the offense. It looks like LeMahieu is our guy.
He was exaclty what we needed, he and michael brantley were hands down the best signings of the offseason
For real. I don’t think they even had a 300 hitter last year and were terrible in clutch situations. This dude just knocks InTwo out RBIs like it’s cool.
@@SemperSalam ikr, its like every time he gets a hit with runners in scoring position it isnt a surprise
I hope the yanks give him an extension if he does this next year
Me too, at least see what he wants to stay
David John!
Makes long gone!!!
way too good for his salary this season
Hot player in the making
This guy was meant to play for the Yanks! Best pickup of the offseason!
DJ LeMahieu would be the perfect fit at 3rd base for the N.Y. Mets.....don't he reminds you of David Wright ?!

DJ did all of this his whole career with the Rockies, and no one noticed. Now that he's with the Yankees, people suddenly notice.
Facts lol
Its colorado ..... everyone knows the statistics when it comes to that ballpark
@@Alexgonz94 as if that itty bitty joke of a ballpark Yankee stadium is any different.
Joel Hassell it’s just the Yankees are a big market team and the Rockies aren’t
Clyde_Sherburger uh hate to break it to you but Rockies stadium is much worse and yankee stadium is pretty deep everywhere except the corners.
DJ!!!DJ!!!DJ!!!!
They should change it to player of the year instead of mvp because they don’t take into account how valuable a player is to a team
Thats actually the main criteria. "The player shown to be most valuable to his team"
Did the Padres move to the AL lol
Arnav Shah I noticed that too.
this DJ is sadly gone
Impressive

There farm system is excellent for finding hitters, pitching is the question. With there line up it doesn't matter tho.
Kevin Gebhard DJ wasn’t a part of the farm system. He was a FA signing. (Left the Rockies)
@@IceBloodManiac My bad your right.
"Farm system", haha. Yankees have bought every Championship.
Coinraker were you alive in the 1990s?
When you join the Yankees you suddenly start hitting dingers and become amazingly good
He’s always been good one of the most underrated players he’s just on a bigger showcase now
Maybe your’e on to semething but you gotta admit there’s something about it
I mean most of his Homers go beyond the distance of the short porch. He is just amazing. Even in COL he was.
Cashman just knows where to find the overlooked, underrated, players for good values
Please pay him :(
