The 2021 Yankees season is over. Sadly, that’s not news. It’s been over for weeks, as the Yankees were eliminated long before the World Series. They fell well short of preseason expectations, just barely making the Wild Card Game and falling with a whimper to the archrival Red Sox.

Over the next month and change, we’ll go through the roster and give each player an overall grade, combining the evaluations of each member of the PSA staff.
