The Yankees aren’t expecting Cody Bellinger to return to his MVP form overnight, but one thing is certain—his defensive prowess will be a game-changer. With the outfield undergoing a transformation this offseason, Bellinger provides a Gold Glove-caliber presence that the Yankees have lacked in center field for years.

Bellinger has long been recognized for his elite defense, with 31 defensive runs saved and 29 outs above average in his career as an outfielder.
While his bat remains an intriguing question mark, his glove is a sure thing.
