During this offseason, the New York Yankees picked up arguably the best pitcher in baseball in Gerrit Cole. The now-former Houston Astro and Pittsburgh Pirate signed a record-setting nine-year, $324 million deal in December. It without a doubt bolsters a rotation that finished 15th in the majors last year with a combined 4.51 ERA.
It’s unclear what the rest of the rotation will look like when the regular season rolls around on March 26. That being said, the fate of left-hander Jordan Montgomery is yet to be decided. The veteran only made eight appearances in the last two seasons combined due to undergoing Tommy John surgery in 2018.
