Trent Grisham has ignited the Yankees' offense early in the 2025 season, showcasing his potential after a lackluster previous year. His recent performance, including two home runs in a single game against the Pirates, has propelled his batting average to .471 with a staggering 1.630 OPS over the first week. Grisham's resurgence comes after limited playing time last season, where he struggled to find his rhythm amidst the Yankees' lineup adjustments.

In the Yankees' 10-4 victory over the Pirates, Grisham's power was on full display. His first home run gave New York an early lead, while a later three-run shot turned the tide after they fell behind. Manager Aaron Boone praised Grisham's swing and the opportunities he has been given. With Cody Bellinger sidelined, Grisham is seizing his moment, contributing significantly to the Yankees' franchise record of 25 home runs in their first eight games.
