One day after the World Series, Yasmani Grandal’s representatives announced that he would decline his $16 mil mutual option and go into free agency.
Yasmani Grandal will decline $16M option, take $2.25M option and become free agent. He won gamble to take 1 year deal in Milwaukee for $18.25M total rather than sign longterm w/Mets ($60M, 4 year reported offer). He can’t receive another qualifying offer and should get huge deal.
