Pitchers and catchers officially report to Tampa, Florida, this week, and New York Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner says he feels this club is better structured than it was last spring training, when Juan Soto arrived at his one \u2013 and only \u2013 Yankees camp.<\/p>\n

So as spring training begins, here’s a look at how the Yankees’ lineup looks without Soto in pinstripes:<\/p>\n

Yankees’ projected lineup 2025<\/h2>\n

    \n
  1. Jasson Dominguez, LF<\/li>\n
  2. Aaron Judge, RF<\/li>\n
  3. Cody Bellinger, CF<\/li>\n
  4. Giancarlo Stanton, DH<\/li>\n
  5. Jazz Chisholm Jr., 2B<\/li>\n
  6. Paul Goldschmidt, 1B<\/li>\n
  7. Austin Wells, C<\/li>\n
  8. Anthony Volpe, SS<\/li>\n
  9. Oswaldo Cabrera\/DJ LeMahieu, 3B<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Spring outlook:<\/strong> Without Juan Soto, it’s a rebuilt lineup around reigning MVP Judge, providing some left-right balance with Bellinger and Goldschmidt.<\/p>\n

    A full year of Chisholm Jr.’s impact, and continuing advances by Wells and Volpe should help. But much is now expected of Dominguez and there’s no clear-cut leadoff option.<\/p>\n

    \u201cI think we have a better team right now than we did a year ago today,\u2019\u2019 Steinbrenner told YES Network of the club’s post-Soto pivot, but nothing can ever replace the historic Soto-Judge lineup dynamic.<\/p>\n

    Yankees’ projected rotation 2025<\/h2>\n
      \n
    1. Gerrit Cole, RHP<\/li>\n
    2. Max Fried, LHP<\/li>\n
    3. Clarke Schmidt, RHP<\/li>\n
    4. Carlos Rodon, LHP<\/li>\n
    5. Luis Gil, RHP<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Spring outlook<\/strong>: Cole’s elbow nerve irritation was a crisis last spring training, delaying his season until mid-June.<\/p>\n

      Still, the rotation was a strength, and it’s more impressive by the free agent addition of Fried, the $218 million All-Star lefty who also arrives with a recent history of forearm and blister issues.<\/p>\n

      Rodon had a bounce back 2024, Gil won the Rookie of the Year award and Schmidt made big strides, though Schmidt missed significant time due to a strained lat and Gil’s second half performance was shaky at times.<\/p>\n
