Pitchers and catchers report in just one short day, and although the 2011 American League East Division Champion New York Yankees will go to camp with 65 players (as of right now), we all have a pretty good idea who has a chance to make the main roster, and who is just there to open some eyes for when they get released.
The Yankees‘ 2011 team was nothing short of a disappointment (by Yankees standards) as they were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs by the Detroit Tigers. Despite winning 97 games and the division last year, I think anybody on the team would agree that last year did not meet expectations.
The Yankees got rid of some problems and made some very smart moves for the present and the future. With all but a few moves already made, it’s time to predict which men will be on the Yankees’ 25-man roster come the regular season, which is a lot closer than you think.
