The way the offseason has played out for the New York Yankees and the New York Mets has simultaneously been extremely different and eerily the same. The Yankees have refused to add anyone of consequence who wasn't already a part of the roster in 2025, while the Mets have bid farewell to fan favorites Brandon Nimmo, Pete Alonso, Edwin Diaz, and Jeff McNeil all winter long. However, the vibe around both franchises is one of disappointment.
Another similarity between both clubs this winter has been their reported interest in Cody Bellinger. For the Yankees, a reunion would continue their trend, but on a much larger scale than guys like Amed Rosario, Paul Blackburn, and Ryan Yarbrough can provide.
