The New York Yankees must decide whether to re-sign infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. after the season. Chisholm, a two-time All-Star, has had a challenging year, currently batting.216 with 17 home runs and 48 RBIs in 113 games. Expectations suggest the Yankees might not extend a qualifying offer to Chisholm, as he could seek a one-year contract elsewhere to boost his performance. With free agency approaching, his situation remains under scrutiny as he tries to regain his form.
- •Chisholm is a free agent after the 2026 season.
- •He is batting.216 this year, down from a.243 career average.
- •Yankees insider suggests a qualifying offer is unlikely.
- •Chisholm could pursue a one-year contract to rebuild his value.
- •He hit 31 home runs last season but has only 17 in 2026.
