Dodgers could address center field by stealing non-Cody Bellinger option from Yankees

The Dodgers' outfield needs some work this offseason. Michael Conforto is leaving in free agency (to which fans say "good riddance") and Teoscar Hernández shouldn't be playing right field. If the Dodgers can get Kyle Tucker — and they're already widely expected to pursue him heavily — the logical conclusion would be putting Hernández in left, Andy Pages in center, and Tucker in right.

The offseason is long and still wide open, and the Dodgers might not get Tucker, but there are other and cheaper options available on the free agent market.

Former Dodger Cody Bellinger is one of them, having opted out of his deal with the Yankees on Monday, but a reunion does seem a little unlikely given the non-tendering ugliness in 2022.
