• Yankees' Trent Grisham: Settles at $5 million

  27D ago • By RotoWire

  Grisham agreed to a one-year, $5 million contract with the Yankees on Friday to avoid arbitration, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports. Grisham signed a one-year deal with the Yankees in January after spending the last four seasons with the Padres. He appeared in just 76 regular-season games in 2024 while serving in a depth role in the outfield behind Alex Verdugo, Aaron Judge and Juan Soto, and Grisham finished with a slash line of .190/.290/.385 with nine home runs and 31 RBI over 208 plate appearances. Grisham could see more playing time in 2025 if Soto and/or Verdugo opt to take their talents elsewhere in free agency, although Jasson Dominguez is expected to move into a starting role to replace one of them.

  09/30/2024 • By RotoWire

  Grisham went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Sunday's win over Pittsburgh. Following Gleyber Torres' leadoff double in the first inning, Grisham took the first pitch he saw from Bailey Falter deep for his ninth home run of the season. Grisham later drove in Jose Trevino in the third inning with an RBI single, giving him five games this season with three or more RBI. After playing 130 or more games each of the last three seasons, Grisham has filled a bench role in his first campaign with the Yankees. The 27-year-old finishes the regular season with a disappointing .190/.290/.385 slash line, nine home runs, 31 RBI, 21 runs scored and one stolen base.

  Grisham hit a grand slam in his lone at-bat in Wednesday's 10-6 loss to the Rangers. Grisham entered the game as a defensive replacement when the Yankees were down 10-2. He came up with a big slam in the ninth inning, but the Yankees didn't build on it. Grisham has functioned as a fourth outfielder lately and hadn't collected a hit since Aug. 14. He's slashing a paltry .187/.294/.380 with eight homers, 28 RBI, 20 runs scored and one stolen base over 195 plate appearances.
