Trent Grisham News
San Diego Padres outfielder Trent Grisham went 2-for-3 with two stolen bases and a run scored as the team ran away late from the Miami Marlins 9-4 on Tuesday. The southpaw has always shown reverse platoon splits, but Grisham got his knocks versus righties in this one. The center fielder is especially victimizing left-handed pitching for a 317/.429/.585 slash line in 41 at-bats this year. Grisham is a regular player for the Friars, but the two-time Gold Glover is mostly in there for his defensive acumen. The 26-year-old is hitting just .196 with five home runs, 14 RBI, and three stolen bases on 168 at-bats this season. Grisham draws walks at a high 15% clip, but he is not worth rostering in fantasy outside of the deepest of leagues.
San Diego Padres outfielder Trent Grisham is taking a spot on the bench to begin Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Gold Glove caliber fielder is slashing .205/.322/.378 this season with four long balls, 17 runs, and 12 RBI. With lefty Julio Urias on the bump, the left-handed Grisham will hand things over to Adam Engel, who's batting ninth. The 31-year-old has played just two games this year after dealing with an injury. Engel doesn't have a hit yet, but he wasn't much of a threat with the bat in 2022, batting .224 with two homers across 119 games. It's better to stay off of him in favor of a better offensive threat.
San Diego Padres outfielder Trent Grisham is absent from Tuesday's starting lineup to take on Graham Ashcraft and the Cincinnati Reds. Grisham has appeared in 29 games this season and has been a solid power provider with four homers and a .440 slugging percentage, but he's still just batting .220 with no stolen bases. Jose Azocar will play centerfield instead and bat ninth. The 26-year-old is limited with the bat, as he owns a .256/.275/.308 slash line after posting a .257 average and .629 OPS last season, but he does have five steals across 19 contests. Fantasy managers can leave Azocar on the waiver wire unless steals is a crucial target.

Grisham turned heads with his .251/.352/.456 line with 10 each of HR and SB in 2020, but his sophomore campaign wasn't nearly as exciting: .242/.327/.413 with 15 HR and 13 SB in 527 PAs. The biggest culprit seems to be his rate of Brls/BBE, which fell from 11.1% in 2020 to just 5.2% in 2021. His HR/FB was nearly cut in half as a result, from 20% to 12%. Grisham's struggles at the plate also led to a demotion to the bottom third of the order, making it harder for him to compile counting stats as well. That said, there were some positives in the seemingly lost season. Grisham struck out less often with a 22.6 K% against a 25.4% mark in 2020 on the strength of a career-best 87.7 Z-Contact%. He also cut his IFFB% drastically, going from 16% in 2020 to 7.2% last year. His BB% appears poised for positive regression too, as his walk rate fell from 12.3% to 10.2% despite no change in his overall approach. If Grisham can regain some of his lost power while translating his 2021 peripherals into actual production, he should turn a nice profit on his ADP of 128.68.
