Yankees Predicted to Make Huge Offseason Move for Another Top Slugger
Following a disappointing 82-80 campaign in 2023, the New York Yankees have made significant improvements to their roster for the 2024 season. Does general manager Brian Cashman have one big splash left to make? Could it include free-agent slugger Cody Bellinger?
The Bombers added to their rotation by signing Marcus Stroman to a two-year, $37 million deal. They also improved the offense by acquiring
outfielders Alex Verdugo, Trent Grisham and Juan Soto in two separate trades. Bellinger had been linked to the Yankees before New York acquired Soto on December 6. But once Cashman pulled the trigger on that trade with the San Diego Padres, Bellinger’s fit in the Bronx didn’t make as much sense.
One front-office executive still views it as a possibility. MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand polled executives on January 27 to see where they think the remaining top free agents could land. Despite most Bellinger rumors focusing on other teams — most notably the Chicago Cubs — this executive thinks the Bombers could find a way to get it done.
