Overview
- Goldschmidt, 38, will enter free agency after completing a one-year, $12.5 million contract with the Yankees.
- He delivered roughly league-average production in 2025 (.274/.328/.403, 10 HR, 45 RBI; 103 wRC+).
- His playing time diminished as Ben Rice took more starts, and he opened just two of six postseason games.
- Several outlets project one-year deals with a likely platoon fit given his .336/.411/.570 performance against left-handed pitching.
- A columnist has predicted a return to the Diamondbacks, though that remains speculative with no agreement announced.
