Cody Bellinger wants to bet on himself.
On Sunday his agent, Scott Boras, said as much. There’s little intention to sign a multi-year deal after the Dodgers non-tendered him. From a recent Ken Rosenthal article on The Athletic, Boras’ quotes signal his plan for his client clear as day.
“I’ve already been offered multi-years,” Boras said Sunday, two days after the Dodgers declined to tender Bellinger a contract for 2023. “Most likely, because of his age, we don’t want a multi-year.”
Now, keep in mind it’s Scott Boras. Maybe Bellinger received multi-year offers, maybe he didn’t — Boras isn’t going to say anything different either way.
