Jazz Chisholm Jr.’s free agency huge ‘broad interest’ update

The offseason is underway and Jazz Chisholm Jr. is reportedly drawing serious interest in MLB free agency. Chisholm, 28, had ups and downs with the New York Yankees in 2026, but he still made an impact. Additionally, he earned the second All-Star selection of his career in 2025. Jon Morosi of MLB Network is reporting that at least 11 teams are interested in Chisholm.

“Jazz Chisholm Jr. is drawing broad interest in free agency, after averaging 25 HR and 36 SB over the past 2 years. Eleven teams have engaged in discussions with his representatives, I am told, with multiple in-person meetings being scheduled next week,” Morosi reported.

Chisholm is an intriguing free agent. He’s a guy who impacts the game in multiple ways. He hit 31 home runs and stole 31 bases in 2025. In 2026, Chisholm recorded 19 long balls and 41 steals.

In addition to his power/speed skill set, Chisholm can also play multiple positions. Teams realistically could sign him to be their second or third baseman, or even an outfielder. If necessary, he could move around the field as well.

A number of teams make sense as suitors for Chisholm. It remains to be seen which ball clubs will make serious pushes for him in free agency, however. It is also unclear if a reunion with the Yankees is realistic.

For his suitors, signing a player like Jazz Chisholm Jr. would instantly help them address multiple areas of need from a skill standpoint.

Updates on Chisholm’s free agency will continue to be monitored and provided as they are made available.
