The New York Yankees are preparing for the start of the 2024 season, facing off against the Houston Astros on Opening Day. Due to injuries to key players like Gerrit Cole, DJ LeMahieu, and Oswald Peraza, the projected 26-man roster has undergone some changes. Manager Aaron Boone will rely on the best players from spring training and a recent acquisition to bolster the bench depth.
In the starting lineup, LeMahieu will be sidelined due to a foot injury, with Berti stepping in as the third baseman following a trade from the Miami Marlins. The everyday starters remain largely unchanged.
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 as the fifth starter in place of the injured Cole. Cortes will take the mound on Opening Day, hoping for a strong performance along with Rodon. The success of the rotation will determine Gil’s future on the team.
