Last season, the Yankees had a losing record against last-place teams, going 16-18. The year prior, they managed a 21-10 record compelling for a .667 winning percentage. If the Yankees maintained that percentage in 2023, they would have won seven more games, finishing with an 89-73 record, the same as the Blue Jays who made it to the postseason via wild card.
The '23 Blue Jays held a 21-14 record against last-place teams, while the Tampa Bay Rays, the '23 AL East champions, dominated with a 27-9 record against cellar-dwellers, showcasing a significant impact on the sizable gap in wins between them and the Yankees.
