White Sox's Randal Grichuk: Gets MLB deal from White Sox
The White Sox signed Grichuk to a one-year contract Monday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Grichuk elected free agency last week after being removed from the Yankees' 40-man roster, and he has managed to land another major-league deal. The 34-year-old's playing time with the White Sox will likely come mostly against left-handed pitching.

Randal Grichuk: Hits open market
Grichuk rejected an outright assignment from the Yankees on Friday and elected free agency.
The veteran outfielder was designated for assignment earlier this week after batting .194 (6-for-33) with 10 strikeouts in 16 games to begin the season. Grichuk posted a .674 OPS in 113 regular-season games between Arizona and Kansas City last season and will likely have to settle for another minor-league contract

Yankees' Randal Grichuk: Scrubbed from 40-man roster
The Yankees designated Grichuk for assignment Wednesday.
The Yankees signed Grichuk to start in the outfield against left-handed pitching, but the right-handed batter went only 5-for-22 with zero RBI and a 1:8 BB:K versus southpaws. Grichuk should land on his feet in a new organization in short order, but he might have to go to the minors first. Grichuk's removal from the roster gives Jasson Dominguez a better chance to stick around indefinitely.

Yankees' Randal Grichuk: Back to bench Wednesday
Grichuk is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels.
Grichuk will hit the bench after starting in each of the Yankees' last three games, the past two of which came against southpaws. He had been hitless on the season heading into Tuesday's 7-1 loss before breaking through with an eighth-inning double off Reid Detmers. Grichuk is likely to be limited to a short-side platoon role moving forward.

Yankees' Randal Grichuk: Added to big-league roster
The Yankees selected Grichuk's contract from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday.
Grichuk didn't do much this spring as a non-roster invitee, but it had always been expected that he would head north with the big club. He will mostly operate in a reserve role but will see some starts against left-handed pitching.

Yankees' Randal Grichuk: Breaking camp with big club
Manager Aaron Boone announced Saturday that Grichuk will be on the Yankees' Opening Day roster, Randy Miller of NJ.com reports.
Grichuk hasn't performed very well in spring training, going just 2-for-16 at the dish while striking out six times, but he'll open the season as bench depth for the Yankees' outfield unit. Most of his opportunities in the Bronx will likely come against left-handed starters.

Yankees' Randal Grichuk: Signs NRI deal with Yankees
Grichuk signed a minor-league contract with the Yankees on Wednesday and was invited to spring training, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.
Grichuk turned in one of the worst seasons of his career last year, slashing .228/.273/.401 with 27 RBI and 35 runs scored across 293 plate appearances between Arizona and Kansas City. The Yankees have been searching for a right-handed bat to play in the outfield, though the 34-year-old will first need to earn a spot on the 40-man roster.

Randal Grichuk: Declines mutual option
Grichuk became a free agent Monday after declining his mutual option for 2026.
He'll receive a $3 million buyout and return to free agency. Grichuk slashed just .206/.267/.299 across 43 games for Kansas City after being acquired at the trade deadline. The 34-year-old was not as productive against left-handed pitching in 2025 (.703 OPS) as he was in 2024 (.913 OPS), though he did homer seven times in 183 plate appearances versus southpaws this season. The right-handed-hitting Grichuk could land a gig this offseason as a short-side platoon bat.

Royals' Randal Grichuk: Sitting in third straight game
Grichuk is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Red Sox.
After being acquired from the Diamondbacks on July 26, Grichuk initially appeared set to get a look as a full-time player in Kansas City, but he may have fallen back into a short-side platoon role since the Royals traded for the lefty-hitting Mike Yastrzemski on Thursday. The right-handed-hitting Grichuk will be on the bench Monday for a third straight matchup versus a right-handed pitcher (Brayan Bello), as the Royals counter with a left-handed-hitting designated hitter (Adam Frazier) and an all-lefty outfield featuring John Rave, Kyle Isbel and Yastrzemski from left to right.

Royals' Randal Grichuk: On bench again versus righty
Grichuk is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.
Grichuk started four of his first five games with the Royals, but he could be at risk of falling onto the short side of a platoon after Mike Yastrzemski was acquired at the trade deadline. Grichuk's playing time could be squeezed further when Jac Caglianone (hamstring) returns from the injured list and reclaims an everyday role sometime in August.

Royals' Randal Grichuk: Sitting Saturday
Grichuk isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Blue Jays.
Grichuk will step out of the lineup Saturday after going 4-for-17 with a home run and three runs scored through his first five games as a Royal. His absence will put Mike Yastrzemski at the DH spot while John Rave starts in right field.

Royals' Randal Grichuk: Slugs first bomb with new team
Grichuk went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's loss against Atlanta.
The Royals' recent trade pickup launched his first home run with the team Monday, taking Dylan Lee deep in the eighth inning. Grichuk has hit safely in each of his first two games with Kansas City, going 3-for-9 with Monday's solo shot. The veteran sports just a 5.2 percent walk rate, but he represents a solid infusion of power considering his .467 slugging percentage over 72 games this season. In the short term, he's filling in as the primary right fielder while rookie Jac Caglianone (hamstring) is out and has the flexibility to play other outfield spots or serve as the designated hitter once Caglianone returns.

Royals' Randal Grichuk: Moving to American League
Arizona traded Grichuk to the Royals on Saturday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports. Per Jon Heyman of the New York Post, the Diamondbacks are getting minor-league reliever Andrew Hoffmann in return.
Grichuk started in right field for the Diamondbacks against Pittsburgh on Saturday but was pulled after two at-bats and was subsequently seen hugging teammates in the dugout. He posted a modest .742 OPS over 70 contests with the Diamondbacks while collecting seven home runs and 22 RBI. Grichuk has pounded as many as 31 homers in an MLB season and could provide a power boost for the Royals, who rank 29th in MLB with 85 long balls on the campaign. His addition could be especially timely if Jac Caglianone, who suffered a hamstring injury Saturday, needs to miss time.
