The New York Yankees have survived another MLB trade deadline, but all eyes are now on free agent predictions.
Jazz Chisholm Jr. is heading toward free agency, and one insider is highlighting his potential landing spot.
Yankees’ Jazz Chisholm Jr. Predicted To Land With NL East Team

According to Kerry Miller of Bleacher Report, 28-year-old Chisholm could land with the Philadelphia Phillies on a six-year, $126 million contract.
“… the Phillies arguably make the most sense here. Luis Arraez was a rental acquisition, both Alec Bohm and Edmundo Sosa are impending free agents and Bryson Stott has just one year of arbitration eligibility remaining on his contract,” Miller wrote. “And with top infield prospect Aidan Miller yet to play in 2026 due to a back injury, goodness only knows when he’ll be ready to factor into the equation.”
Chisholm is playing in his seventh year of Major League baseball, but this has not been a season for the books.
He is currently slashing .215/.293/.396 with a disappointing .689 OPS and 17 homers through 108 games. He’s posted 14 doubles, two triples and 47 RBIs.
This marks Chisholm’s third campaign with the Yankees.
Earlier in his career, he spent five years with the Miami Marlins. Once July 2024 rolled around, the Marlins traded him to New York in exchange for Abrahan Ramirez, Jared Serna and Agustín Ramírez.
This year has shown a significant drop on his stat sheet since landing with the Yankees. For reference, in 2025, he slashed .242/.332/.481 with an .813 OPS and 31 home runs over 130 games.
Miller does note the existing possibility of Chisholm “re-upping” with the Yankees, but the Phillies are likely in the cloud of options.
