Report: Mike Yastrzemski, Giants Agree to 1-Year, $6.1M Contract to Avoid Arbitration

The San Francisco Giants and outfielder Mike Yastrzemski have avoided arbitration by agreeing to terms on a one-year, $6.1 million contract, per ESPN's Jeff Passan.

The 32-year-old Yastrzemski just finished his fourth MLB season, all with the Giants. He had 17 home runs, 57 RBI and a .214 batting average (.697 OPS) in 148 games last season.

Yastrzemski also avoided arbitration prior to the 2022 campaign by agreeing to a $3.7 million deal. He is eligible to become a free agent before the 2026 season.

The outfielder nearly evenly split time between right and center field last year after spending most of his time in right in 2021.
