@Feinsand
Grichuk played for the Diamondbacks last season after signing a one year deal with them for $2 million and put decent numbers with 12 homeruns and 46 RBIs which earned him another one year deal.
The former Blue Jays outfielder spent four years in Toronto in which he had some of his best season offensively with multiple seasons with more than 20 homeruns and a year with 31 in 2019.
While Grichuk's offensive numbers have slowed down in the past few years, this is still a solid deal for the Diamondbacks who are getting a veteran outfielders at a cheap price.
