When the Yankees got swept out of the ALCS last year by the Astros, their lack of production on offense was a major factor. And part of that was because of the absence of DJ LeMahieu, who was sidelined due to a fractured foot.

But after an encouraging offseason in which LeMahieu avoided surgery, he’s now healthy and, according to hitting coach Dillon Lawson, is back to his old self.

“He looks really good,’’ Lawson said Thursday from Tampa, where LeMahieu has been among the Yankees working out on a regular basis.

“He looks healthy, whether it’s in the weight room or on defense or hitting. He’s pushing it with everything, and he’s able to do it. If you didn’t know how last year ended, you wouldn’t think anything of it, but we all saw that.’’
