Jazz Chisholm finished third on the Yankees with a 4.2 WAR in 2025.<\/p>\n
Jazz Chisholm<\/a> Jr. is set to become a free agent after the 2026 season, but he\u2019s made it clear he enjoys playing with the New York Yankees<\/a> and would like to stay in the Bronx if the two sides can reach a contract agreement.<\/p>\n This is the time of year when a lot of MLB<\/a> organizations lock up some of their star players ahead of the season to get things out of the way and avoid any potential drama and conflict down the road. Jazz Chisholm is open to a contract extension with the Yankees, but the reports indicate that New York has not reached out to Jazz\u2019s agents about a potential deal. A recent report reveals what Jazz would like for his contract extension to look like.<\/p>\n More MLB on Heavy: Yankees Trade Idea Lands Athletics\u2019 $45 Million All-Star Starter<\/a><\/p>\n Jazz Chisholm Reveals His Ideal Contract Price Range<\/p>\n Jazz Chisholm recently spoke with NJ.com about<\/a> the upcoming season and his upcoming free agency.<\/p>\n He is already making it clear to the Yankees front office what his contract price point is:<\/p>\n \u201cHis number is $35 million for 8-to-10 seasons.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cNJ.com: What if it\u2019s $25 million a year.<\/p>\n Chisholm: I\u2019d say no because I know I can get $35 million somewhere else. That\u2019s $10 million less a year.<\/p>\n NJ.com: How many years do you want?<\/p>\n Chisholm: \u201cI\u2019m 28. I want 8-to-10 years.\u201d<\/p>\n Getty<\/p>\n Jazz hit 31 home runs and stole 31 bases last season, and is certainly regarded as one of the best second basemen in MLB, so his original demands are not far-fetched at all. However, do the Yankees want to open up the checkbook for Jazz? That will be a huge storyline in the 2026 season.<\/p>\n An 8-year contract worth $35 million AAV would be a $280 million contract evaluation.<\/p>\n As Jazz mentions, he\u2019s just 28 and is set to hit the open market for the first time in his career. Why not shoot for the stars?<\/p>\n![\"Yankees](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Heavy-Thumbnail_20260117_131609_0000.png\")
