Yankees thread the needle with Cody Bellinger acquisition
Briefly

The Yankees' trade for Cody Bellinger is a calculated move to enhance their chances for a successful 2024 season, focusing on improved power in their lineup.
Bellinger's shift to Yankee Stadium offers potential for a significant uptick in his home run production, making him an appealing fit as they adjust his swing.
Defensively, Bellinger's ability to play center field allows Aaron Judge to return to right field, where he can be more effective, enhancing the overall team defense.
Bellinger's signing should alleviate some defensive concerns for the Yankees while providing additional offensive depth, even if he may not return to his MVP form.
