Yankees under-the-radar possible moves

New York Post | Jon Heyman:

Cody Bellinger appears to be a wonderful fit for the Yankees in many ways. At 28, he still has a few seasons remaining before going into a true decline phase. He is a left-handed hitter and a reliable center fielder. The Yankees are allegedly worried about Bellinger’s fundamental offensive performance, particularly his hard hit and barrel rate, despite these advantages. Belli was in the lowest quartile of all metrics—important markers of the ability to push the ball moving forward—despite having a fantastic 2023.

New York Daily News | Gary Phillips:

If the Yankees decide not to pursue Bellinger or any of the other high-profile players available this winter, such as Juan Soto or Yoshinobu Yamamoto, there are a number of unsung candidates that may strengthen the team.Cleveland Guardians star With only one more season of control left, Shane Bieber might be a trade asset. Additionally, Yankee brass should be taking notice of KBO star Jung-Hoo Lee’s bat-to-ball skills.

Bleacher Report | Jack Murray:

The Yankees have reportedly asked about a reunion with both Jordan Montgomery and Frankie Montas, adding to the rumors surrounding free agents. Gumby, who was traded away at the 2022 trade deadline, will be hoping to make a big move following an incredible second half that saw him win a World Series ring with the Rangers. While Montas, a former fireballer, attempts to reestablish value after tossing just 40 innings in Yankee pinstripes over a year and a half, he might make more sense on a prove-it type deal.
