Is Cody Bellinger REALLY the answer for the Yankees? I get the upside play, the potential Yankee Stadium power surge is tantalizing, and the one-year “prove it” deal has its appeal. But are we overvaluing a former MVP who has been largely inconsistent since his award-winning season? Is this another case of the Yankees chasing a name rather than addressing their real needs?

The Cubs are CLEARLY eager to offload his salary. Shouldn't that raise a red flag? What are they seeing that we aren’t? Are we buying into a risky proposition while other, potentially more reliable options are available? This feels like a gamble. Is it a gamble the Yankees can afford to take, or are they setting themselves up for another season of disappointment? Let’s hear your takes. Is Bellinger a boom or bust in the Bronx?
