The New York Yankees made another splash this offseason by acquiring Cody Bellinger from the Chicago Cubs in exchange for reliever Cody Poteet. After missing out on re-signing Juan Soto in unrestricted free agency, the Yankees front office has had to pivot to fill some open spots in their lineup.

Enter Bellinger, who has proven his ability to play all over the field on defense. The 2019 National League MVP with the Los Angeles Dodgers has had a rollercoaster career since winning the prestigious accolade. However, his defensive versatility has continually made him an intriguing asset.
