Team Strengths: Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, Aaron Hicks and Brett Gardner all return within an elite outfield group, with Jacoby Ellsbury and onetime top prospect Clint Frazier also accessible if they can prove they’re beyond their injuries. The turning received a boost with the trade for James Paxton and re-signing of J.A. Happ, along with a elite bullpen became even better following Zack Britton re-signed and Adam Ottavino arrived aboard.
Team Weaknesses: Initially foundation, Greg Bird has been struggle to keep healthier and Luke Voit should prove last season was not a fluke. At third base, Miguel Andujar needs to increase his defense. Even so, the Yankees’ flaws are stronger than any other group’s.
What They Did About It: The Yankees improved their overall infield depth with the signings of Troy Tulowitzki and DJ LeMahieu. In addition to assisting the middle infield until Didi Gregorius returns, Tulowitzki and LeMahieu are capable of playing third base as well, allowing Andujar to shift to first base if Voit and Bird battle.
Final Outlook: The Yankees took a 100-win group and made it stronger and deeper. The franchise’s first World Series appearance since 2009 is currently in play.
