Why the Yankees Need to Pursue Kyle Tucker in Free Agency
The Yankees face a gap in left field after Cody Bellinger opted out of his contract, becoming a free agent. While they could re-sign Bellinger, who hit 29 home runs and played excellent defense, they should consider alternatives to strengthen their roster.
Signing Kyle Tucker could provide the star talent and depth needed to create the best team in the Aaron Judge era. Although it may be more expensive than re-signing Bellinger and could limit future signings, the Yankees' internal developments in 2025 justify the investment.
