The best possible alternative path for Yankees' offseason after Trent Grisham's QO

Ladies and gentlemen, meet your 2026 New York Yankees center fielder, Trent Grisham. By virtue of accepting the qualifying offer, it's now a foregone conclusion that Grisham will once again be the man roaming the middle of the Yankees outfield.

While the door isn't technically shut on a Cody Bellinger reunion, the fierce competition the Yankees would face to reunite with the popular outfielder makes a re-signing extremely unlikely, with another expensive center field solution already in the fold.

We can debate the merits of the gamble the Yankees took, but ultimately, what's done is done.
