Chisholm, who homered twice on Wednesday to give him 17 on the season and seven in his last 12 games, made it no secret that he would be interested in the event if MLB came calling, which it evidently did.
He joins an eight-man field alongside Ronald Acuña Jr., Byron Buxton, Junior Caminero, Oneil Cruz, Cal Raleigh, Brent Rooker and James Wood.
If nothing else, Chisholm should bring an entertaining flair to the Home Run Derby, becoming the first Yankee to participate in it since Aaron Judge and Gary Sanchez in 2017.
The Yankees, meanwhile, may just be hoping Chisholm gets through it healthy after he missed the month of May with an oblique strain. He also has been playing through a sore shoulder in recent weeks.
