Is Trent Grisham the Secret Weapon That Could Transform the Yankees’ 2026 Season?
With Grisham penciled into center field to start the season, he will have an opportunity to silence his doubters and enter a shallow free agent hitter’s pool next offseason, looking for a big payday.
2025 statistics: 143 games, 581 plate appearances, .235/.348/.464, 34 HR, 84 RBI, 129 wRC+, 14.1 BB%, 23.6 K%, -11 Defensive Runs Saved, -2 Outs Above Average, 3.2 fWAR
2026 ZiPS DC projections: 130 games, 560 plate appearances, .216/.329/.416, 25 HR, 72 RBI, 111 wRC+, 13.6 BB%, 24.7 K%, 3.1 fWAR
A lot has been said on social media about the Yankees reuniting with Grisham. There’s been a great deal of “it’s an overpay” or “he’s a one-year wonder.” In fact, it feels like more fans expect him to be under the Mendoza Line than to repeat his 2025 season.
