Cody Bellinger is displaying some veteran poise as the Yankees face plenty of uncertainty leading up to the trade deadline.

A s the Yankees' slide into mediocrity hits its second month, and with Aaron Judge potentially out of the outfield for the entire year due to his right elbow injury, calls for the Yankees to make creative moves by Thursday's deadline are only mounting.

The Yankees have reportedly been pursuing a right-handed bat beyond Amed Rosario, whom they acquired from the Washington Nationals over the weekend, and with some question marks surrouding Judge's defensive availability when he returns from the IL, Bader and Slater are still logical targets for the club despite their contract statuses.
