Overview
- After issuing a $22.05 million qualifying offer to Trent Grisham, the Yankees reportedly expect him to decline before the Nov. 18 deadline.
- GM Brian Cashman called re-signing Cody Bellinger a top priority and said payroll remains fluid.
- Jon Heyman said on MLB Network he does not see the Yankees being in on Kyle Tucker this offseason.
- Following a 35-homer, 29-steal Minor League season, Spencer Jones will enter camp with a real chance to win an outfield job, per Cashman, or become a trade chip if New York adds an outfielder.
- Beyond the outfield, New York is targeting another starter, bullpen help and a backup catcher as it sets the roster for 2026.
