The Atlanta Braves signed free agent outfielder Mike Yastrzemski to a two-year, $23 million contract on Wednesday.
Yastrzemski will make $9 million in 2026 and $10 million in 2027 with a team option worth $7 million for 2028 or a $4 million buyout.
The grandson of Baseball Hall of Famer Carl Yastrzemski, Mike Yastrzemski has a career .238 average with 123 home runs and 364 RBIs over 840 games spanning seven seasons.
Yastrzemski, 35, was selected by the Baltimore Orioles in the 14th round of the 2013 draft but had spent his entire major league career with the San Francisco Giants before he was traded to the Kansas City Royals at this year's trade deadline for pitching prospect Yunior Marte. He became a free agent after the season.
