The New York Yankees are a day away from the start of the 2024 MLB season, and experts around the league are putting together their record predictions ahead of the big day.
Given an active offseason that included signing Juan Soto from the San Diego Padres in a December deal, the Yankees have received praise from record predictions.
Most experts expect New York to reach playoffs with a handful seeing them win the division.
Experts expect a big season with the Yankees
From analytical sites that evaluate the numbers to popular outlets like ESPN, the Yankees are expected to be among the best teams in the league.
It is hard to imagine the Yankees’ offence being as terrible as it was in 2023. Hopefully, getting Aaron Judge for almost a full season can help this course, including additions like Soto and Alex Verdugo who could make a strong impact.
New York will go the length its pitching staff will take it. Gerrit Cole being absent for the first two months of the season will hurt, and players like Carlos Rodon and Marcus Stroman will have to step up to the challenge in the middle of the rotation.
Even with several key players starting the season on the injured list, expectations are still high for the Yankees in 2024.
