The New York Yankees are preparing for the start of the 2024 season, facing off against the Houston Astros on Opening Day. However, injuries to key players like Gerrit Cole, DJ LeMahieu, and Oswald Peraza have forced some changes to the projected 26-man roster.
Manager Aaron Boone will rely on the best players from spring training and a recent acquisition to strengthen the bench depth. In the starting lineup, Berti will step in as the third baseman following a trade from the Miami Marlins, with LeMahieu absent due to a foot injury. The everyday starters remain largely intact.
On the bench, Wells will serve as the backup catcher behind Trevino, with Cabrera ready to play first base and also fill in as an outfielder if needed. Rortvedt was traded to the Tampa Bay Rays, leaving Wells as the lone backup catcher.
The rotation will see Gil taking over as the fifth starter in place of Cole’s injury and Cortes starting on Opening Day, hoping for a strong performance alongside Rodon. The success of the rotation will determine Gil’s future on the team. Weaver will begin his season in the bullpen with Gil joining him in this new role.
The Yankees are eagerly anticipating a successful start to their reshaped roster despite challenges posed by injuries and trades.
