Story summary

Trent Grisham, a center fielder for the New York Yankees, left a game against the San Diego Padres on Friday night due to discomfort in his right hamstring. The injury is a concern because it's not the first time Grisham has struggled with a hamstring issue, having previously been put on the injured list earlier this season. In fact, tests revealed that he has a moderate, Grade 2 strain in his right hamstring, similar to one he suffered in June. With three weeks left in the regular season, Aaron Boone, the Yankees' manager, acknowledged that Grisham "could be" out for the rest of it. This raises questions about whether Grisham will reclaim his position as center fielder when Aaron Judge returns from injury, potentially putting Spencer Jones back in the spotlight.
