As the Yankees enter the new season, they are deeply impacted by injuries, having 11 players on the injured list, including key players like Gerrit Cole and Luis Gil. Cole's Tommy John surgery and Gil's strained lat significantly weaken their pitching rotation. Additionally, uncertainties surround the return of veteran hitters DJ LeMahieu and Giancarlo Stanton, raising concerns over the team's offensive depth, particularly against left-handed pitching. This situation has led the Yankees to seek further right-handed batting options as they prepare for a challenging season ahead.
The Yankees head into the season with 11 players on the injured list, affecting both quantity and quality, significantly impacting their rotation depth.
With ace Gerrit Cole needing Tommy John surgery and AL Rookie of the Year Luis Gil sidelined until at least June, the Yankees face major challenges.
