The Yankees’ starting rotation heading into 2021 was full of question marks as three of the projected starter had combined for a total of one inning pitched during the 2020 season.

While he was able to log some innings pitching in the Dominican Winter League, the resulting 7.16 ERA created as many questions as answers heading into spring training.
