Anthony Rizzo: The New York Yankees have declined Anthony Rizzo’s $17 million option for the 2025 season, officially making him a free agent. This decision follows a difficult year for Rizzo, who battled injuries and finished the 2024 season with a disappointing .637 OPS over 92 games.
Rizzo was initially brought in to stabilize the Yankees’ struggling first base position and had a strong start in 2022, but injuries hindered his performance in recent seasons. While the Yankees have depth with players like Oswaldo Cabrera and Ben Rice, they are now looking for a more consistent offensive option at first base.
Despite his departure, Rizzo remains optimistic about continuing his career. “I feel like I have a lot to offer to this game in a lot of different ways,” he said. As he enters free agency, both Rizzo and the Yankees face new opportunities for the upcoming season.
