Here’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting:
- Mike Yastrzemski reportedly signed a two-year contract with the Atlanta Braves in December 2025, with a club option for a third year; the deal was valued around $23 million, though the Braves had not publicly confirmed terms at the time of reporting .
- In spring 2026, he’s been listed as the Braves’ right field bat in various updates, with notes about him being part of a left-field platoon and returning from pink eye-related sidelining to rejoin the lineup ahead of Opening Day .
- He faced a minor spring setback due to pink eye but was expected to be in the lineup within a few days, and later spring reports suggested he would be in a platoon role in left field for Atlanta in 2026 .
If you’d like, I can pull the very latest updates again and summarize any new developments (injury notes, lineup role changes, or contract updates) with direct citations.
