We’re now less than two weeks away from Opening Day, and the Yankees have a few choices left to make regarding their roster. Namely, they’re whittling down who on the pitching staff is going to be heading with the team to San Francisco, and then based off of that deciding if they’re going to carry an extra infielder or not. On top of that, they’re waiting for the rest of their players to return from the World Baseball Classic, which will be wrapping up tomorrow, freeing them to start making more
of the expected cuts to their spring camp.
As we approach the start of the 2026 season, it’s time to start nailing down the final pieces of the puzzle. Who will be the last handful of relievers that the Yankees carry with them to start the year? Will they opt for a shorter bullpen to give themselves an extra position player on the bench, and if they do how do they solve things once the off-days shorten up? How well do you expect the team to do in their opening month or so, and will the early standings be favorable or an uphill battle? If you have questions like these, or anything else on your mind, send ‘em in for a chance to be featured in our Yankees mailbag.
Answers will run on Friday afternoon. All questions received by the night of March 19th will be considered. You can leave your submissions in the comment section below or by e-mail to pinstripealleyblog [at] gmail [dot] com.
