Jayson Nix went 0-for-3 in the Yankees' ALCS Game 2 loss to the Tigers on Sunday in New York. Nix is serving as the Yankees' starting shortstop in the absence of Derek Jeter (ankle) but could be in danger of being replaced by Eduardo Nunez if he fails to produce at the plate. Nix batted .243/.306/.384 with four homers and 18 RBI in 74 games during the regular season.

Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said Jayson Nix will be the team's starting shortstop for the remainder of the postseason with Derek Jeter (ankle) out. Eduardo Nunez will be added to the roster to take the spot of Jeter, who fractured his left ankle in the 12th inning of Saturday's loss to the Tigers. Nix, 30, had a couple hits in his lone start this postseason, but he's a career .214/.285/.371 hitter over parts of five major league seasons. Obviously, it's not an ideal situation for the Yanks.

Jayson Nix is expected to be a part of the Yankees' roster for their ALDS series against the Orioles. Manager Joe Girardi hasn't announced the roster yet, but Andruw Jones, Casey McGehee and Chris Dickerson have already been told that they will not be a part of it. Unless they elect to carry Melky Mesa or a third catcher, Nix seems like the most logical option to claim the final bench spot.

MLB.com's Bryan Hoch reports Jayson Nix will miss 10-14 days with a strained left hip flexor. The injury rules him out for the Yankees' final four games, and it's possible Nix won't be added to the postseason roster. With Nix out, Eduardo Nunez will serve as the primary backup at shortstop and second base.

Jayson Nix will have an MRI on his left hip Saturday. The severity of the injury, or when it occurred, isn't yet known, but Nix may have been injured filling in for Alex Rodriguez on Thursday. With Nix out, Eduardo Nunez will serve as the Yankees' primary utility infielder.

Jayson Nix connected on his first home run of the season Saturday in New York, helping to lead the Yankees to a 6-2 victory over the Mariners. Nix went yard off Hector Noesi in the second inning. He has been used very sparingly in the early part of the season and is doubtful to suddenly gain fantasy relevance.

Yankees purchased the contract of INF Jayson Nix from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. With Eric Chavez ailing, the Yanks needed to add some emergency infield depth. Nix was batting .233/.314/.367 at the Triple-A level. He won't carry any fantasy value.

Yankees signed INF Jayson Nix to a minor league contract. Nix, 29, batted just .169/.245/.309 over 136 at-bats in 2011. The deal with the Yanks includes an invitation to spring training, but Nix will be in minor league camp.

Blue Jays sent INF Jayson Nix outright to Triple-A Las Vegas. Designated for assignment last weekend, Nix and his .169 average passed through waivers unclaimed. There's a good chance he'll be back with the Jays at some point this summer, but he obviously won't be worth a look in AL-only leagues.

Blue Jays designated INF Jayson Nix for assignment. Nix will depart Toronto having posted a weak .169 batting average and four home runs over 136 major league at-bats. He was dumped to make room for Mike McCoy.
