Where do Yankees and Cody Bellinger actually stand?
Brad Penner-Imagn ImagesThis offseason has been relatively quiet for the New York Yankees, so much that the fans are finally getting restless with one question:
When are the Bronx Bombers finally going to re-sign free agent Cody Bellinger?
Short answer: Probably soon. Jon Heyman of the Post reported that the team did indeed make Bellinger a formal offer, though specifics weren’t provided. MLB Trade Rumors predicted he would land a five-year, $140 million contract as he enters his age-30 season. Realistically, he’s probably seeking something closer to $200 million and will probably land somewhere between $150-$180 million.
