Granderson announced his retirement Friday.

5 years ago

The veteran calls it quits after a 16-year career spent with the Tigers, Yankees, Mets, Dodgers, Blue Jays, Brewers and Marlins. He'll finish with 344 homers, 153 steals and a .249/.337/.465 slash line (115 wRC+). The three-time All-Star leaves a strong legacy off the field as well, as evidenced by his four Marvin Miller Man of the Year Awards and his Roberto Clemente Award.

Granderson remains out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Brewers, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.

Granderson hasn't made a start since Aug. 21 and will likely be limited to a bench role the rest of the way for what might be his final big-league season. Through 343 plate appearances, the 38-year-old has posted a .643 OPS, by far the worst mark of his career in the category.

Granderson is out of the lineup for the first game of Monday's doubleheader with the Mets, Andre Fernandez of The Athletic reports.

Even with his main competition for a spot in the everyday lineup (Cesar Puello) heading to the injured list Monday, Granderson looks like he'll merely be a fourth or fifth outfielder for the rebuilding Marlins. Miami called up Lewis Brinson from Triple-A New Orleans in a corresponding move and will insert him into center field in the series opener, with Harold Ramirez and Brian Anderson flanking him in the outfield. The 25-year-old Brinson should be given every opportunity over the final two months of the season to tap into his considerable upside, likely leaving Granderson in store for only 1-to-3 starts most weeks.

Granderson will be on the bench Saturday against the Rays.

Granderson has a poor .622 OPS in the second half, though that's not noticeably worse than the .630 mark he recorded prior to the All-Star break. Harold Ramirez will be the left fielder Saturday.
