All the New York Yankee post-season news has been centered around picking up that star shortstop to fill the gap from the failed experiment with Gleyber Torres. Still, General Manager Brian Cashman has been vocal about acquiring a one-two punch in the pitching rotation that is now missing with the departure of 2 times Cy Young Award-winning Corey Kluber.
Cashman has done next to nothing to accomplish the needs of the club before MLB instituted the CBA lock-out.
Fangraphs has issued their projected WAR for MLB’s pitching rotations, and it shows that if the Yankees fail to upgrade the rotation for the new season, they still come in with the 8th best rotation in baseball.
