Vaughn Grissom Receives Injection, Unsure if he'll Open on Injured List
Los Angeles Angels infielder Vaughn Grissom (hand) received a cortisone shot in his left hand on Tuesday, and he's unsure if he'll have to open the 2026 regular season on the injured list, according to Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com. Grissom hurt his hand during a Cactus League game last week against the Chicago White Sox. The 25-year-old former 11th-round pick by the Atlanta Braves in 2019 played all of last year at Triple-A Worcester in the Boston Red Sox's system, slashing .270/.342/.441 with a .783 OPS, 13 home runs, 48 RBI, 69 runs scored, and nine stolen bases in 96 games played. He looked good in limited action in the big leagues in his first two seasons in 2022 and 2023 with the Atlanta Braves, but injuries have cost him opportunities, and he batted under .200 in 31 games for the BoSox in 2024. Grissom's hand injury doesn't help his chances of making the Opening Day roster as a utility player for the Halos in 2026. You can ignore Grissom outside of deep AL-only and keeper leagues.
