Cody Bellinger isn’t going anywhere.
The Yankees re-signed the outfielder on Wednesday to a five-year, $162.5 million contract with opt-outs after the second and third seasons, The Post’s Dan Martin confirmed.
Bellinger was one of the Yankees’ top priorities in free agency, and the Bombers got a deal done after the Mets, Phillies, Angels and Dodgers all had interest in his services throughout the offseason, The Post’s Jon Heyman previously reported.
The Dodgers previously signed the top outfielder in free agency, Kyle Tucker, to a four-year, $240 million deal on Jan. 15.
Bellinger thrived in the Big Apple in 2025, hitting 29 homers with a .272/.334/.480 slash line.
He hit particularly well at Yankee Stadium with a .909 OPS in 80 games.
He was good with the glove, too, ranking in the 93rd percentile in outs above average.
Bellinger’s 5.1 wins above replacement — according to Baseball Reference — was the highest of his career since his National League MVP season in 2019 with the Dodgers.
With Bellinger back in the fold and Trent Grisham already accepting a $22 million qualifying offer, the Yankees should have their starting outfield set.
