Do the Yankees need to make a big splash this offseason in the rotation?

Yankees' Rotation Concerns

The Yankees' rotation, initially considered a strength, was impacted by injuries to Gerrit Cole and Luis Gil, dampening preseason expectations.

Despite starting the year with Marcus Stroman and Carlos Carrasco as their no. 5 starters, the rotation finished in the top 10 in ERA and WAR in 2025.

However, this success did not translate to the ALDS, where the Blue Jays struggled against Max Fried and Carlos Rodon, with Cam Schlittler being the only starter to register a quality start.

With Rodon starting the season on the injured list and Gerrit Cole not expected to be activated by Opening Day, questions arise about the need for additional starters.

No official statement has been made regarding potential additions to the rotation.
