Yankees' Oswaldo Cabrera: Starting at first base in Game 1
Cabrera is starting at first base and batting eighth in Saturday's Game 1 of the ALDS against Kansas City.
Cabrera played primarily at third base during the regular season but made five starts at first. Jazz Chisholm is locked into the starting role at the hot corner for the postseason, so Cabrera is needed much more at first base with Anthony Rizzo left off the roster due to a a pair of fractured fingers. Ben Rice is also on the team's ALDS roster as an option at first base.

Yankees' Duke Ellis: Summoned for ALDS
Ellis is included on the Yankees' roster for the American League Division Series versus the Royals.
Ellis played in just 11 games between the White Sox and Yankees in the regular season and logged just five plate appearances. However, he came in handy as a base stealer, notching five thefts in five attempts. Ellis ended the campaign in the minors and will likely be used almost exclusively as a pinch runner during the division series.

Yankees' Marcus Stroman: Doesn't make ALDS roster
Stroman is not on the Yankees' roster for the ALDS against Kansas City.
Stroman struggled during the regular season, posting a 4.31 ERA and 1.47 WHIP over 154.2 innings. He was briefly moved to the bullpen in mid-September but returned to a starting role for his final appearance of the campaign after Nester Cortes (elbow) landed on the injured list. The Yankees aren't likely to need more than four starters in the ALDS, and the team elected to roll with Gerrit Cole, Carlos Rodon, Luis Gil and Clarke Schmidt ahead of Stroman.

Yankees' Jake Cousins: Activated off IL for ALDS
Cousins (pectoral) was activated off the 15-day injured list Saturday ahead of Game 1 of the American League Division Series versus Kansas City, per MLB's transaction log.
Cousins finished the regular season on the injured list due to a pectoral strain but was able to toss a series of bullpen sessions ahead of the playoffs. The right-hander was consequently able to prove his return to health and will serve as an option in relief for New York against the Royals. Cousins posted a 2.37 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 53:20 K:BB while logging eight holds and one save over 37 appearances spanning 38 innings during the campaign.

Yankees' Alex Verdugo: Expected to start in Game 1
Verdugo is expected to start in left field for Game 1 of the ALDS against the Royals on Saturday, Andy Martino of SNY.tv reports.
Verdugo split starts in left field with Jasson Dominguez toward the end of the regular season after the latter was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes Barre on Sept. 9. The duo had a similar slash line during that split, but it appears manager Aaron Boone will go with the veteran Verdugo for Game 1 of the ALDS. Verdugo's lone postseason appearance was in 2021 with the Red Sox, when he slashed .310/.383/.452 with one home run and six RBI across 47 plate appearances.

Yankees' Anthony Rizzo: Not part of ALDS roster
Rizzo (fingers) will not be on the Yankees' ALDS roster against the Royals, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Rizzo admitted Friday that he hadn't progressed far enough in his recovery program to contribute at a high level, though he did express optimism that he could return should the Yankees make it to the ALCS, per Meredith Marakovits of YES Network. Two of Rizzo's fingers on his right hand were fractured after being hit by a pitch in the penultimate game of the regular season, and he has yet to resume baseball activities, per Bryan Hoch of MLB.com. Ben Rice will serve as the Yankees' first baseman for the ALDS.

Yankees' Anthony Rizzo: Yet to resume baseball activities
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said Thursday that Rizzo (fingers) has yet to resume baseball activities, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Rizzo suffered two fractured fingers on his right hand when he was hit by a pitch in the penultimate game of the regular season. He remains a longshot to be included on the ALDS roster, but the ALCS would seemingly be more realistic if the Yankees are able to advance. Ben Rice and Oswaldo Cabrera are in line to handle first base for the ALDS.

Yankees' Luis Gil: Game 3 starter TBD
Yankees pitching coach Matt Blake indicated Wednesday that the team will wait until after Game 1 of the ALDS to announce whether Gil or Clarke Schmidt will start Game 3, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.
The club will have both Gil and Schmidt available in relief in Game 1, so it is holding off on naming a Game 3 starter until after the series opener plays out. The Yankees are set to play the winner of the Royals-Orioles wild-card series.

Yankees' Carlos Rodon: Slated for Game 2 start
Rodon will start Oct. 7 in Game 2 of the ALDS, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Rodon will follow Game 1 starter Gerrit Cole against a yet-to-be-determined opponent. The lefty went through his fair share of ups and downs during the regular season, but he finished on an upswing in September, collecting a 2.20 ERA and 34:10 K:BB over 28.2 frames covering five starts.

Yankees' Jake Cousins: Expected to be ready for ALDS
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that Cousins (pectoral) is on track to be ready for the ALDS, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Cousins will throw another bullpen session Wednesday, which should be the last hurdle he needs to clear before being included on the ALDS roster. The right-handed reliever hasn't pitched in a game in nearly two weeks because of a right pectoral strain.
