New York is looking to get back to the World Series with a loaded roster behind Aaron Judge in the batting order and Gerrit Cole on the pitching staff. The Yankees finished with a 92-70 record and second in the American League East in 2021. The team lost in the wild card round against the Red Sox.

The Yankees have made the playoffs five consecutive times but haven’t reached the World Series since the 2009 season when they defeated the Philadelphia Phillies for championship No. 27.
