Fantasy baseball: 2020 New York Yankees fantasy preview
By Mike Marteny
30 teams in 120 days of quarantine: New York Yankees fantasy preview
The wait is almost over! Fantasy baseball returns this week, and most of you are getting ready for draft day. I’m here to help! This series of baseball previews is down to the last three!
Most of you, like me, have played DFS for quite some time. We have never seen anything like this before. A bare lobby. No upcoming contests. E-Sports touts are in hog heaven. Even most DFS touts are trying to become E-Sports touts. It’s nuts!
Most of you, also like me, still play season-long fantasy baseball. Some for money. Some not. Some just because it’s the only interaction you have with some friends anymore. Whatever the case, we can use this break in DFS to get us polished up for our fantasy baseball drafts, whenever those may be.
We started at the bottom and are slowly moving up. The New York Yankees were third in the majors with 102 wins last season.
The biggest loser in this whole coronavirus thing as far as baseball is concerned is Domingo German. He still has 63 games left on his domestic violence suspension, meaning that he is not able to play this season. He ended up losing more than a season and his future is in Jeopardy as he has strongly hinted that his MLB career is over via social media.
Here we will examine the New York Yankees projected lineup and rotation, and who to draft and in what general spot. We will also take a look at prospects that could make their debuts and have a fantasy impact in 2020. The 2019 stats are in parentheses. Let’s get started!
