Cody Bellinger discusses what he is working on in Spring Training, Aaron Judge's impact on the team, the Yankees' aspirations to be good and more

Jacob Misener of Cubbies Crib hits the nail on the head: "In other words, they're paying Bregman the same amount the New York Yankees are paying Aaron Judge — the reigning American League MVP who has amassed 10+ WAR in two of the last three seasons as the game's premier offensive talent.

Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner ended the club's traditional facial hair policy this week, and conversations with the club's captain and a key newcomer had an impact on his decision.
