Trent Grisham continues from Wow during the year of walking while the Yankees avoid scanning
Considered a return to the trade of Juan Soto and used sparingly last season, nobody expected that Trent Grisham reaching 25 circuits for the Yankees this year.
And yet, with more than a month to go to the regular season, Grisham has already reached this better personal. The central defender arrived there on Sunday, playing two solo shots while the Yankees prevented a scan of four games with a 7-2 victory over the Red Sox on “Sunday Night Baseball”.
Grisham was not the only fine end in Homer in the victory of the rivalry, which “improved” the Yankees at 2-8 against the Red Sox this season and put the bombers to a half-match of Boston for the best point of Joker in the American League.
Jazz Chisholm Jr. also left the courtyard twice, when he started the scoring for a previously dormant offense with a two -way circuit in the second round. He pulled another two -point jack in the eighth of Walker Buehler.
José Caballero, from Anthony Volpe’s square, added a bag of bag in the fourth after Giancarlo Stanton reached a double of 117.8 mi / h. An erratic Carlos Rodón also did quite well on the mound, limiting the Red Sox to a safe blow and two points deserved in 5.2 rounds despite a walk / strike ratio from 5 to 3.
Although Grisham was not the only Yankee with a multi-homes match on Sunday, he now has four this season. He first took May in the third before marking the right again in the fifth. Overall, the head man totaled 819 feet of dingers while going 2 for 2 with two products produced and two walks.
Grisham now has a .820 OPS and a 131 WRC + this season. The two would be perfectly timed careers, because this off -season is put in free agency.
It will be interesting to see what type of Grisham agreement signs, and if his current employer will continue a meeting, because the 28 -year -old had a .697 OPS and a 95 WRC + in six seasons with the brewers, the paadres and the Yanks before this offensive escape campaign, which has included many clutch moments. He was an elite defender before this season, winning two gold gloves, but the metrics were less nice with him in 2025.
Grisham, hit by nagging hamstrings for several weeks this summer, entered the Friday match with -2 out above the average, the worst brand of his career.
The other Yankees field players. Aaron judge and Jasson Domínguez are under contract for the coming years, while Cody Bellinger has a player option for next season and a more deserving history if he withdraws, the probable scenario given the season he appreciated.
Spencer Jones, one of the best hopes of the Yankees, is also part of the puzzle, and there is always the potential to sign an external free agent like Kyle Tucker to a long -term agreement.
The Yankees could potentially extend a one -year qualification offer in Grisham, which will allow the team a choice of draft if it were to sign elsewhere. If Grisham accepted the offer, the Yankees would be on the hook for a considerable salary in 2026.
Last winter, the 2025 qualification offer was set at $ 21.05 million.
Of course, everything that is still a few months of serious consideration. For the moment, Grisham is a Yankee who seeks to define some career summits before a potential qualification series and his first crack on the free market.
