Yankees’ Cody Bellinger chances will come down to key sticking point
NY Post
The Yankees have said all along this offseason that they would love to have Cody Bellinger back.
But just how many years they’re willing to commit to that remains to be seen.
The Yankees have made multiple offers to Bellinger, The Post previously reported, but the main sticking point between the two sides at this point is believed to be contract length.
The Athletic reported Thursday that Bellinger’s camp is pushing for seven years, which the Yankees may be wary of, especially given that they do not want to bid against themselves for the 30-year-old outfielder.

Most of the words Chris Drury said in July about defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov centered around the defensive side of the $49 million defenseman’s game. The Rangers president and general manager wanted to be better in front of their goaltenders. He wanted improved coverage in high-danger areas. And Gavrikov, inked to a seven-year deal at the start of free agency that month to pair with Adam Fox, possessed “qualities of an elite shutdown guy.”
