SAN DIEGO — The subtractions from a roster that won 111 games last year just keep coming.
“We’ve had multi-year offers for him but we’re probably going to pursue a one-year contract,” Boras said, the idea being Bellinger could re-establish his value in 2023 then return to free agency next winter and sign a longer, more lucrative contract. “Belli is a player I think a lot of teams are surprised is available – a 27-year-old MVP-type guy who suffered an injury, is getting his strength back. I think there’s a lot of teams that are looking at that as a very serious upside.
“Getting into a space where you’ve got a leg issue, you’ve got a shoulder issue, and you get into some bad habits. Bad habits create mistakes or make it tougher to hit, and then you get into this rabbit hole of chasing the feeling that you used to have and where you’re at mechanically. There’s a lot of freedom in getting a full off-season to get healthy and recognize that. And a change of scenery sometimes is a benefit for a lot of guys.
And reliever Tommy Kahnle made $4.75 million over the past two years with the Dodgers, spending most of it rehabbing from Tommy John surgery and pitched only 12⅔ innings for them. He agreed to a two-year, $11.5 million contract with the Yankees on Tuesday.
