TAMPA - If you're like us and already made a prediction as to which 28 players will make the Yankees' Opening Day roster, let's hope you used pencil.

It was strange to see the Yankees lock up their division title near the end of the season and not play relevant baseball again for almost two weeks. The first-round bye is a new concept, and while I can't say that I'm sorry that New York dodged the Wild Card round (goodness knows that they've dealt with it enough in the past decade), it will be…

The World Series kicks off tomorrow night between two teams with wildly different expectations heading into the postseason. On one hand, the Astros were the top seed in the American League.

If you go by the records, the stats, the experience, the recent head-to-heads … if you go just by all of that, it would be easy to think the Yankees should handle the Cleveland Guardians in their upcoming best-of-five American League Division Series.

The Yankees' roster has been in a constant state of flux over the past month due to injuries, and the expansion to 28 players in September allowed them to give a couple of young bats a shot.

While some starters…
