“It will forever have a special place in my heart” – Cody Bellinger’s emotional farewell to the Cubs and Wrigley Field’s lasting influence

Former Chicago Cubs Slugger Cody Bellinger

Cody Bellinger's time with the Chicago Cubs has come to a close. It was announced on Tuesday that the former National League MVP was traded to the New York Yankees.

Trade talks between the two camps have been watched closely all winter, and the Bronx Bombers quickly pivoted following Juan Soto's announcement. Now, the Yanks have another powerful bat, and all it took was sending RHP Cody Poteet to Chicago.
