The MLB season is right around the corner, and for many fans that means the beginning of the fantasy baseball season.

Fantasy baseball doesn’t have the same draw that fantasy football does, but with a 162-game season in baseball, having a fantasy team to follow is a good way to keep interest alive.

Generally the New York Yankees have a lot of offensive weapons to choose from, but over the past few seasons, that has begun to change. Yankee Stadium offers a friendly short porch in right field for hitters, but that didn’t help the Yankees’ offense last season. They don’t have the top picks like Robinson Cano, but they do have some good options for value.

Last season, the New York Yankees had some big names go down to injury in their rotation, and drafting a few of them could be very risky, as the rotation could be ravaged by injuries again.

Here are five Yankees that could help you win for a fantasy baseball league in the 2015 season.
