New York Yankees news/updates: Injuries, starting pitching, backup catcher

Error 0:

The New York Yankees have started the 2020 season with a bang, in the injury department. In just one short month, the Yanks went from having one of the best rosters in baseball to a roster littered with missing players and reserves. The outfield will consist of all backup players on Opening Day — Brett Gardner, Mike Tauchman, and Clint Frazier.

As we move forward towards the regular season, the Yankees will rehab players like Giancarlo Stanton, Aaron Judge, James Paxton, Aaron Hicks, and more. The starting pitching unit has been stripped thin after losing Paxton for several months, Luis Severino for the entire season, and Gerrit Cole’s confidence after allowing four homers in two innings against the Detroit Tigers last week.
