2024 Fantasy Outlook
Grisham's most obvious real-life value has always been tied to his defense, though his potential to package double-digit homers and steals has kept him from falling entirely off the fantasy radar. Last season, he notched a career-high 15 thefts and slugged 13 long balls but was largely unrosterable due to batting a meager .198, falling below the Mendoza Line for the second straight year. Grisham was awarded for his patience at the plate with an elite 13.5% walk rate, but his affinity for taking pitches wasn't all positive -- he passed on considerably more pitches in the best areas of the strike zone than the average major-leaguer, which combined with a 28.3% whiff rate to result in a poor 27.8% strikeout rate. Grisham's glove gave him a considerable amount of job security during his tenure to San Diego, but after moving to the Yankees in the Juan Soto deal, he'll likely spend the 2024 campaign in a fourth-outfielder role.

Draws second start of season
Grisham will start in center field and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks.
ANALYSIS
He'll crack the lineup for just the second time in the Yankees' first seven games of the season while Giancarlo Stanton gets a breather and Aaron Judge fills in for him as the designated hitter. While all of Stanton, Judge, Juan Soto and Alex Verdugo are all healthy, Grisham looks as though he'll be limited to a fourth-outfielder role.

This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Included in Soto deal
Grisham will go to the Yankees as part of the Juan Soto trade, presuming it is completed, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Grisham wouldn't have a starting spot in New York after the Yankees acquired Alex Verdugo in addition to Soto, but the Yanks will take on the roughly $5 million he's slated to make in arbitration and use him as a fourth outfielder and defensive replacement. The 27-year-old has slashed just .191/.300/.347 over the last two seasons but consistently grades out as a plus defender in center field.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2022
2021
2020
2018
2017
2016
Grisham had a 106 wRC+ across his first three big-league campaigns, but he struggled mightily at the plate in 2022 with a .625 OPS in 152 games. He lost hold of the starting job in center field in mid-September but reclaimed the job by the end of the campaign. Grisham once again provided excellent defense in center field with 13 OAA to earn a Gold Glove, which is the primary reason he received as many opportunities as he did despite his offensive issues. His strikeout rate spiked to 28.6 percent, but he continues to take plenty of walks with an 11.2 percent walk rate. Grisham saw his contact rate drop over five percentage points when swinging at pitches inside the strike zone, and his line-drive rate also cratered to 13.5 percent. However, he also clubbed 17 homers and clearly still has the potential to be an impact bat. Whether the 26-year-old is able to get back on track in 2023 remains to be seen, making him a volatile fantasy option at best.
