The countdown is on for spring training.
In just a few weeks, the New York Yankees will be reporting to Steinbrenner Field in Tampa, Florida and prepare for the 2013 season.
Last year, the Yankees were able to hold off the Baltimore Orioles to win the American League East, then eliminated the same Orioles in the American League Division Series in five games, but were then swept by the Detroit Tigers in the American League Championship Series.
For Joe Girardi’s group, there will be some new faces and names you might see when the players report to Tampa.
Most of the regulars like Robinson Cano and Mark Teixeira will be looking to get the rust off their swings and get into baseball shape.
And then there are guys like Derek Jeter who will be playing for the first time since suffering a broken ankle in Game 1 of the ALCS back in October
And then there are those players who will be fighting for jobs and looking for a chance to make the roster.
For some, the spring is like their playoffs and World Series and will be going all out in order to make the team.
Which Yankees have the most to gain this spring?
