This Yankees bench may be the best in recent history

Last season, the Yankees struggled mightily with injuries, forcing them to make moves and reach deep into their farm system at times to stay afloat. Well, with that wide variety of players, they did more than just stay afloat. Those midseason call-ups and last-second preseason signings are a big reason why the Yankees won the AL East for the first time since 2012.

Now, for the course of the 2020 season, Yankee fans should feel more than comfortable knowing who will be accessible from the bench. Players like Mike Tauchman and Mike Ford accounted for 137 games played during the season while Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, Aaron Hicks, and Luke Voit, among others, were injured.
