The two figure to terrorize opposition pitchers atop the Yankees lineup while Soto's is a storyline to follow throughout the year as we gauge his comfort with the Yankees as he heads into free agency.
as those projections depend on bounce-backs from players like Carlos Rodòn, Nestor Cortes, Giancarlo Stanton, Anthony Rizzo, and DJ LeMahieu.
There's also the question of which young pitchers will step up to fill the void left by Michael King, Jhony Brito, and Randy Vàsquez, guys like Will Warren, Chase Hampton, Luis Gil, and Clayton Beeter likely the first names called. There's also the question of outfield deployment - how much time Alex Verdugo, Trent Grisham, and Giancarlo Stanton will get on the outfield grass - and lineup construction - Soto and Judge will likely bat two-three, but how are others deployed ahead and behind them?
