All the details you need to know about the jaw-dropping New York Yankees payroll for the upcoming 2023 MLB season.
The New York Yankees will begin the 2023 Major League Baseball season as one of the most formidable potential champions in the league. After suffering a humiliating defeat at the hands of the Houston Astros in the American League Championship Series (ALCS) during the 2022 campaign, the New York Yankees will be looking to get back on track and demonstrate why they are among the finest teams in the Major League Baseball.
The New York Yankees and superstar Aaron Judge were able to come to terms with a new deal, which will lead to a significant increase in the amount of money that the team pays its players.
As per Spotrac, the New York Yankees payroll for the 2023 MLB season is projected to be at a whopping total of $271,004,047. The Yankees have never been afraid to spend a lot of money on their players, but they were unable to get some of the players they had targeted throughout the winter, and this may have an effect on how well they perform this year.
The Houston Astros are still the team to beat in the American League, so it will be quite interesting to see how the New York Yankees fare this year given that many people picked them to win it all the previous year.
