After losing Juan Soto to the Mets, Yankees GM Brian Cashman quickly pivoted to acquire Cody Bellinger from the Chicago Cubs, marking a significant move for the team. Bellinger, a former NL MVP, is expected to play a versatile role, either in the outfield or at first base.

Cashman also secured left-hander Max Fried and closer Devin Williams, while expressing interest in Japanese pitcher Roki Sasaki. The Yankees are optimistic about their offseason moves, aiming to enhance their roster for the upcoming season.
