Trent Grisham performance and injury status

Overview

New York Yankees outfielder Trent Grisham experienced a significant decline in performance during the 2026 season following a breakout 2025 campaign. After hitting 34 home runs the previous year, Grisham’s production dropped to a .211 batting average and a .689 OPS, leading the Yankees front office to evaluate his future role and potential contract status.

Adding to these performance concerns, Grisham suffered a right hamstring strain while attempting a stolen base during a series opener against the San Diego Padres at Petco Park. The injury has been identified as a Grade 2 right hamstring strain. Having previously suffered a similar strain in June, there are concerns that Grisham may miss the remainder of the regular season.

In response to Grisham’s placement on the 10-day injured list, the Yankees recalled Jasson Domínguez from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to provide outfield depth. Rookie Spencer Jones has taken on increased responsibility, including significant center field duties.

On Saturday at Petco Park, the Yankees defeated the Padres 5-1, fueled by a four-run second inning that included a two-out RBI double from Jones. Pitcher Carlos Rodón earned his first win in five starts, striking out seven and holding the Padres to two hits over five innings. The victory maintains the Yankees' control of the American League top wild-card spot as they move closer to securing their 34th consecutive winning season.
