Among the big names, Yamamoto, Chapman, Bellinger would be a dream scenario. Add a backup catcher, a reliever or two and I believe it could be called a very successful off-season.
Bellinger is - and honestly should be - the #1 Yankees target. Short porch RF in Yankee stadium will be tough to turn down.
I'd like to be alive when the Giants beat the Yankees, Dodgers, Mets, Red Sox, Cubs, and/or Phillies for a top of market Free Agent they all covet.
MLBtraderumors (a great site) has posted their free agency predictions (always well-researched and frequently correct, particularly regarding the biggest names). As an aside, their arbitration-eligible player salary estimates are uncannily accurate.
SF received two votes (out of three) for Bellinger and the Yanks one.
The Yanks received two votes for Yamamoto and SF one.
I would agree. I think the Giants have a better shot at Bellinger (I believe Yamamoto is New York’s big target this year).
Note: Ohtani to the Dodgers was a unanimous choice. Is there any doubt?
