The Tampa Bay Rays are the Yankees’ biggest opposition en route to the AL East title in 2020. Just a few weeks ago the Yankees boasted the number one offense in baseball, despite Aaron Judge and Giancarlo missing significant time.
The Yankees won 103 games last season, seven more than the Rays made away with. The Yankees may have had the most dominant offense, but the Rays had the most dominant pitching in the American League.
