The New York Yankees are the December Favorite for Cody Bellinger in a market that won't move. Still, if one splurge contract offer hits, it seems doubtful the Yankees will rise to the top of his market. They're both involved and skittish. The line may not be formally drawn in the sand, but they're definitely afraid to walk any closer to the tide.
Needless to say, the latest whiffs coming out of the Dodgers' camp aren't fantastic for the Yankees' hopes.
The Dodgers - they broke baseball, you may have heard of them - don't seem particularly inclined to overpay for an outfielder this year, either.
