I would be very unsurprised if the Yankees went after Bichette instead
Boras about to fuck this up for Belli.
Time to pivot. Boras will still have Belli holding out for a few more mil in March while everyone else is in spring training playing actual baseball
Just go get Tucker.
Sounds like they actually are now moving on. Pretty surprising tbh, I expected him to come to his senses at some point. But maybe there’s someone willing to badly overpay for him (Mets?).
If the numbers are true I don’t think it would be remotely fair to blame the Yankees for being cheap, 5 years 150 mil if not slightly higher is more than reasonable.
Just move on. You don’t pay premiere money to a B player
I saw he’s asking 35+Mil that’s literally insane and 7 years too 🤦
He’s gonna sign in February and be ice cold until the middle of May
Can they just pivot to Tucker if that’s Belli’s asking price
Onward and hopefully upward.
I like Belly. Move on. It’s ridiculous that this has dragged on for this long. If we’re at 5/150+m and he’s still up north of $200m, just no thank you. He doesn’t want to be here. He’s probably not getting that either!
Belly is not Soto. You don’t hold up your entire offseason for him. It’s freaking annoying.
My max would be 6/150
The Yankees have a clear mandate to spend a very specific amount of money each year under Hal.
In that world, with the amount of guys we’re already paying, you don’t give $200M to non-stars.
Cody isn’t a star. He’s a good player at a position of need. There’s a difference.
Drop it. He’s gonna be a 3 WAR player for a couple of years at the most. Also hasn’t been good in the playoffs. 2 good playoffs out of 7.
If the Yankees move on, I wouldn’t be upset by it
I’m begging for Bellinger to sign elsewhere at this point..
I am grateful for everything Bellinger did for this team last year, but he’s not worth what he’s asking for. Seems like it’s time to move on.
Move on!!!! It’s like negotiating with terrorists at this point.
He’ll report to camp in March
yankees have been at an impasse all off season
Scott Boras can go fuck himself.
I wanted him back but $35-37 million per year for 7 years is just not worth it. The contract is going to age horribly at that price and years
If you are going to pay that value, get Tucker. Please
At this point either pivot to Tucker, who is better and younger, or run with Judge, Grish, and Jasson, and find a great defensive 4th outfielder and focus on upgrading the rotation.
Frankly I’d rather they trade for someone like Freddy Peralta or Mitch Keller and work on upgrading the pitching
37 mil is too much
Really hard to believe he’s trying to pull this shit on us. This guy’s dad was a Yankee. We pulled for him all year last year and he was great. And now you try to pull Judge-tier AAV on our shit? Fuck off with that.
Sure burnt through all that goodwill he earned over the year. All over a few million that he could easily make in endorsement deals being in freaking nyc. So short sighted. Just out the extra money as incentives and bet on yourself if you think you’re worth it
No shit lol
He’ll end up unsigned halfway through Spring Training as seems to be the custom with Boras clients. Then he’ll settle for a 1 year deal
Drop it move on. Not worth it
This guy will be a disaster long term. If they want to overpay for a 3 year deal fine, but that wouldn’t make sense for him to take. This will be his last big contract so he’s being unrealistically greedy
Sorry but he shouldn’t get judge money
When the Yankees (in)famously bid against themselves for a near-prime, pre-scandal ARod, it was at least for FREAKIN’ AROD. As much as I liked him on the Yankees, Belli ain’t that guy. Time to put an expiration date on the current offer and make plans to move on.
