The most obvious candidate is Brewers ace Freddy Peralta, quietly one of the top pitchers in the National League over the last few years.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/6956135\/2026\/01\/08\/yankees-cody-bellinger-offer-30-million-aav\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:The Athletic | Brendan Kuty;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">The Athletic | Brendan Kuty<\/a>: By all accounts, Cody Bellinger remains the Yankees\u2019 top priority on the free agent market, with their latest offer to the outfielder reportedly now cracking the $30 million AAV mark. The scuttlebutt is that Bellinger is still seeking seven years though, so the finish line isn\u2019t exactly in sight.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2026\/01\/08\/sports\/yankees-bo-bichette-interest-intensifies-amid-cody-bellinger-gap\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:New York Post | Jon Heyman;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">New York Post | Jon Heyman<\/a>: With the Yankees still reportedly a bit far apart in their negotiations with Bellinger, the team has reportedly continued to check in on Bo Bichette, with some more degree of seriousness than they previously had.

One often bandied about thing is MLB adding two expansion teams and realigning. Manfred has often spoke of have the division more geographically aligned, although any potential change wouldn\u2019t be as drastic as putting the Yankees and Mets in the same division, for instance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"MLB Trade Rumors | Darragh McDonald: Thursday was the deadline for teams and players eligible for arbitration to&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":396695,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[65],"tags":[10668,157665,382,146352,4711,39466,42327,21297,10656,363,11999,8894,99,12404],"class_list":["post-396694","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mlb","tag-arbitration","tag-arbitration-eligible-players","tag-bo-bichette","tag-brian-cashman","tag-cody-bellinger","tag-david-bednar","tag-edward-cabrera","tag-freddy-peralta","tag-jazz-chisholm-jr","tag-mlb","tag-national-league","tag-phillies","tag-sports","tag-yankees"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396694","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=396694"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396694\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/396695"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=396694"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=396694"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=396694"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
