Grissom is a hold — league average across the board.

His expected wOBA is .315, dead on the league average, and 401 plate appearances is well past the point where that number becomes reliable. His actual wOBA is .309, so there is no luck gap pulling the line in either direction. The contact metrics land in the same place: 87.9 mph average exit velocity against 89.0 league, a 37.8% hard-hit rate against 40.0%, 7.2% barrels against 8.0%. Nothing there is a hidden skill waiting to show up. He strikes out less than league average at 18.5% and walks a little less at 6.5%, and he chases more than average at 31.7%, which roughly cancels out. Limited data here — no career baseline or trend to lean on, so this call rests on the first stable sample of the season. There is no edge in either direction. Hold. With a 0 HR / 3 R / 6 RBI ROS line, he's a drop-tier drag — hold only as deep-league filler.
