Checking in on the Yankees’ division rivals

Assuming that spring training starts on time, we’re slightly less than a month before pitchers and catchers report — the average date, for those that have announced them, is roughly February 18 — and slightly more than a month from the first full team workouts.
Since there is little time left in the offseason, it’s a good time to check in on the AL East to see how the Yankees’ biggest rivals are doing this winter.
