New York Yankees

The New York Yankees found their ace, inking Gerrit Cole to a MLB-record-breaking $324-million contract. Cole has been among the best pitchers in Baseball since a breakout 2018 season. The right-hander has an extraordinary 602 strikeouts in his last 65 games started with a sparkling 2.68 ERA and will join Luis Severino, James Paxton and Masahiro Tanaka in a dangerous Yankees rotation.
