The New York Yankees' future is a hot topic as fans and analysts debate who will be on the team for the 2026 season. The focus is on whether the club will re-sign free agent outfielder Cody Bellinger and address pitching depth, lineup balance, and the mix of veterans and rising stars. With Gerrit Cole and Carlos Rodon recovering from surgeries, the Yankees need quick fixes, likely through free agency or short-term deals. The bullpen is also up for changes, with Camilo Doval's closer role potentially up for grabs. The infield and outfield have their own questions, with Paul Goldschmidt expected to play elsewhere and Anthony Volpe out for at least a month. The Yankees are searching for a right-handed bat to provide balance and a right-handed veteran catcher to support Austin Wells. The offseason is about plugging holes, reinforcing depth, and securing stars to help the team navigate a season full of uncertainties.
