Trent Grisham Lands on Injured List With Hamstring Strain
The New York Yankees announced on Saturday that they placed outfielder Trent Grisham (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list with a right-hamstring strain and reinstated outfielder Jasson Dominguez (shoulder) from the 10-day IL in a corresponding move. Grisham will head to the IL after tweaking his hamstring while running the bases in the sixth inning of Friday's series opener against the division-rival Toronto Blue Jays. The 29-year-old had what appears to be an outlier season in 2025, when he hit 34 home runs and drove in 74 in 143 regular-season games for the Yankees. Through 66 games and 264 plate appearances in 2026, Grisham has hit .232 (52-for-224) with eight homers, 35 RBI, six stolen bases, and 40 runs scored. The good news is that his strikeout rate has dropped from 23.6% last year to just 15.9% this season. He also ranks in the 74th percentile in hard-hit rate and the 78th percentile in xwOBA, so positive regression could be coming in the second half if he can stay healthy. Dominguez, who is rostered in only 10% of Yahoo leagues, should now have a regular role in New York's outfield, at least until Grisham and Giancarlo Stanton (calf) return.
