Image Source: Getty
Long considered one of the steadiest and most respected players in Major League Baseball, veteran first baseman Anthony Rizzo hit a question mark in 2025. Some may be expecting it to happen, as Rizzo has now hit free agency after the New York Yankees opted to decline his $17 million club option for the year.
A three-time All-Star, the 35-year-old Anderson struggles with his future in baseball after a second injury-abbreviated year. Still, his economic might and away-from-the-field contributions have only ever driven further the foundation of his legacy.
Anthony Rizzo's net worth, salary, and contract status
According to various sources, Anthony Rizzo's net worth is $27 million on date June 2025. Much of that money comes from an accomplished 14-year career in Major League Baseball, beginning with the San Diego Padres, flourishing with the Chicago Cubs, and finishing with the New York Yankees.
He collected most of his career monetary value on contracts well beyond the $120 million mark, topped by an 8-year, $68 million pact with the Cubs and a 2-year, $34 million contract with the Yankees, which he signed in 2022.
Rizzo's Yankees deal ran through 2022–24, collapsing a $17 million team option for 2025 that the club declined after a rough year for Rizzo. His production dropped as he dealt with a fractured forearm and finger issues, leading the Yankees to buy the option out for $6 million.

Rizzo returns to free agency, and his future is hazier at this point, though some continue to suggest Rizzo may snag a short-term deal after the Yankees and Red Sox find personnel with wartime experience.
Endorsements, philanthropy, and the off-field impact of Anthony Rizzo
In addition to his baseball income, Rizzo has also developed a strong off-field presence with endorsements. He has worked with big brands like State Farm, Sony, BodyArmor, and local Chicago staple Buona Beef. He also has some entrepreneurial endeavors, including his cereal, 'RizzO's,' which had a great reception among Cubs fans and sold out shortly after its debut.
Rizzo is additionally a dedicated philanthropist. A cancer survivor himself, he established the Anthony Rizzo Family Foundation in 2012 to aid cancer research and families impacted by cancer, a cause that is particularly close to his heart. The foundation has donated millions of dollars, including $3.5 million to Lurie Children's Hospital in Chicago and hundreds of thousands nationally, as with the National Compassion Fund after the 2018 Parkland shooting that struck Rizzo's college alma mater.

Yankees activate Luke Weaver after the right-hander missed two weeks with a strained left hamstring
Jun 21, 2025 12:51 AM IST NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Yankees activated right-handed reliever Luke Weaver from the injured list Friday after he missed two weeks with a strained left hamstring. HT Image Weaver was injured warming up before a June 1 game against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium. After being placed on the injured list, the Yankees thought Weaver might be out until early July or through the All-Star break. Instead, Weaver began feeling better quickly and said the pain disappeared shortly after the injury. He took his final steps in his rehab by throwing a simulated game on Tuesday after throwing side sessions. Weaver has a 1.05 ERA with eight saves in nine opportunities in 24 appearances. He ascended into the closer's role by converting six saves in seven chances after Devin Williams posted an 11.25 ERA in his first 10 appearances and was removed from that spot on April 27. A 31-year-old right-hander who can become a free agent this autumn, Weaver supplanted Clay Holmes as closer last September. From May 20-22, Weaver became the first Yankees pitcher to appear on three consecutive regular-season days since Aroldis Chapman in September 2021, though Weaver's first outing in that stretch lasted just two pitches, and the three totaled 18. Williams converted all four save chances while Weaver was injured and has a 1.76 ERA in his last 16 appearances since May 5. The Yankees cleared room for Weaver by optioning Jayvien Sandridge to Triple-A Scranton Wilkes/Barre. Sandridge was called up Thursday when Yerry De los Santos went on the injured list with right elbow discomfort. ___ AP MLB:
