Anthony Rizzo becomes free agent after Yankees decline $17M option
After Game 5 of the World Series and the conclusion of the Yankees’ season, Anthony Rizzo stayed in his uniform.
He was reluctant to remove his pinstripes after spending 3 ½ seasons in The Bronx.
Should he come back, it would necessitate a new deal.
On Saturday, the Yankees chose not to exercise their 2025 option on Rizzo, making him a free agent.
