Rumors suggest the Chicago Cubs might trade Cody Bellinger as they are ready to part ways with the center fielder. Scott Boras represents Bellinger, and as teams demand him more, they will drive up his market value.
The former National League MVP enjoyed his stint with the Chicago Cubs, but his former team and the New York Yankees have emerged as favorites among several other teams. The Cubs want to free up some of their cap, and trading Bellinger would make that possible.
Cody Bellinger Landing Spots
4) Los Angeles Dodgers
The Dodgers are rumored to be on the list of teams to pursue Cody Bellinger. After winning the World Series, they are keen on adding extra firepower to the plate. The Dodgers are well aware of Bellinger’s potential. The star slugger won his AL MVP trophy with the team, and they are expected to pursue Belliger aggressively.
3) New York Yankees
The Yankees need hitters who can deliver. Bellinger will be a good fit for the team. Moreover, Belli would be the perfect addition if they fail to add Juan Soto to their lineup due to tough competition. Anthony Rizzo is also questionable, and Bellinger could easily take his position.
2) New York Mets

The Mets seem to be in the market for almost every top free agent. Steve Cohen has been aggressive in pursuing star players, and Cody Bellinger is one on the list. However, their top priority will be signing Soto.
1) San Francisco Giants
The San Francisco Giants are under the leadership of Buster Posey for their next season. Posey will try to take his team to the playoffs, but the Giants need an outfielder. Pursuing Bellinger will be the perfect option for the Giants. It’s high time that the Giants outbeat the Dodgers and the Padres.
Among all teams, Bellinger to the Giants will make more sense. The Giants could easily opt for a two or three-year contract. Although Bellinger is comfortable in Chicago, he must be ready to embrace a new team.
