They need to make a move quickly if they lose Bellinger, as their AL East rivals have been working overtime to improve their rosters.<\/p>\n<p>Bleacher Report\u2019s Kerry Miller\u00a0believes that if the Yanks lose Bellinger, which he sees as likely, they need to pursue a big fish, and that big fish is Chicago Cubs All-Star outfielder Kyle Tucker.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/library.sportingnews.com\/styles\/crop_style_16_9_desktop_webp\/s3\/2025-08\/USATSI_26934501.jpg.webp?itok=obk3i6U7\" alt=\"Yankees predicted to sign $460 million four-time All-Star, World Series champ if they lose Cody Bellinger to free agency image\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s a bit silly to say that signing the hottest commodity in free agency is the backup plan for a team, but it might be the case for the Yankees. They arguably need to do something significant in the outfield, and with all due respect to the likes of Harrison Bader and Ryan O&#8217;Hearn, Bellinger and Tucker are the only significant options in free agency this winter,\u201d Miller wrote.<\/p>\n<p>This past season, Tucker slashed .266\/.377\/.464\/.841 with 25 doubles, 22 home runs, 73 RBI, and 25 stolen bases in 136 games played. Tucker is also a lefty like Bellinger, so his numbers would be even better, as he can use the Short Porch for easier home runs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Yankees will be competing with other top contenders for Tucker, though. They need to be sure they\u2019re ready to spend, even if owner Hal Steinbrenner doesn\u2019t want to.<\/p>\n<p>If they can get Tucker, they need to. He\u2019s the future after Judge, and to have a bat like him locked down would be great for New York\u2019s future.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This being considered a rebound signing only works for New York.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":124685,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-124681","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
