Our look at the immediate futures of every Yankees player, from Aaron Judge to Giancarlo Stanton to Brett Gardner.

Manager Aaron Boone and general manager Brian Cashman have lots of important decisions to make this offseason.

Manager Aaron Boone

What's his future? Owner Hal Steinbrenner and general manager Brian Cashman each backed Boone, their rookie manager, after their postseason ouster. Boone still has two seasons remaining on a three-year deal. He came under fire for his decision-making in the ALDS, particularly keeping his starting pitchers in too long. But Boone was fine throughout the regular season, when his Yankees won 100 games.

Aaron Judge

Position: RF

Age: 26

2018 stats: .278 BA, 27 HR, 67 RBI, 112 G, 498 AB, .919 OPS

Contract status: Made $622,000 in 2018. Free agent in 2023.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Judge is the face of the Yankees and one of the faces of baseball. No shocker there. What will be interesting will be how much Judge gets paid as a first-year arbitration-eligible player in 2019. Kris Bryant got $10.85 million for his year year of arbitration eligibility from the Cubs in January. Even that sounds like a steal when it comes to Judge, who's best years are presumably ahead of him. Judge says and does all the right things. We start with him because his Yankees future seems like the biggest lock, outside of maybe our next guy …

Giancarlo Stanton

Position: DH/OF

Age: 28

2018 stats: .266 BA, 38 HR, 100 RBI, 158 G, 617 AB, .852 OPS

Contract status: Owed $272 million through 2027. Free agent in 2028.

What's his future? When the Yankees traded for Stanton before the season, it at least kind of felt like a move that could be seen as Cashman hoping to find better value than investing in Manny Machado or Bryce Harper this offseason. Still might work out that way, though Didi Gregorius' Tommy John surgery could open the door a bit wider for Machado. Stanton could opt out of his contract following the 2020 season. If he doesn't, he's stuck in his deal. His insanely rich deal, that is. Looks like Stanton will be around until it's almost 2030. (That sentence felt crazy to write.)

J.A. Happ

Position: LHP

Age: 35

2018 stats: 7-0, 2.69 ERA, 11 starts, 63 2/3 IP

Contract status: Made $13 million in 2018. Free agent after this season.

Don't Edit

What's his future? In a radio interview Wednesday, Cashman said he hopes the Yankees are the team "lucky enough to sign" Happ this winter. So, while you knew they would be in play for the southpaw, Cashman confirmed it anyway. Happ makes plenty of sense on so many levels for the Yankees. Only Luis Severino and Masahiro Tanaka are locks to return to the rotation. Happ has proven he can thrive in New York City. And, if anything, he seems to be getting better with age. His price tag will be the deciding factor, though. He's said he'd have the Yankees among the top teams on his list, but it would also be understandable if he wants to chase the final big contract of his career.

Don't Edit

Andrew McCutchen

Position: OF

Age: 31

2018 stats: .253 BA, 5 HR, 10 RBI, 25 G, 87 AB, .892 OPS

Contract status: Made $14.75 million in 2018. Free agent after this season.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Don't expect McCutchen back in the Bronx. Don't rule it out either. In late September, McCutchen said he loves New York City and that playing for the Yankees "just feels different," considering their history. The Yankees have a spot open in left field — at least as of right now. But McCutchen, while he's fallen off from his MVP days, could still get paid this offseason. He can handle either corner outfield spot and his eye is sharp has ever. Still has pop, too.

CC Sabathia

Position: LHP

Age: 38

2018 stats: 9-7, 3.65 ERA, 29 starts, 153 IP

Contract status: Made $10 million in 2018. Free agent after this season.

Don't Edit

What's his future? It should be right back in the Bronx. Sabathia had the second-best ERA in the rotation and made its second-most starts at 29. Yeah, the right knee needs to be monitored, and he hardly gets through five innings these days. But they're typically a good five innings. He's worth the money if the Yankees can avoid injury, add pieces in front of him and keep him the No. 5 starter.

Don't Edit

Sonny Gray

Position: RHP

Age: 28

Stats: 11-9, 23 starts, 30 games, 4.90 ERA, 130 1/3 IP

Contract status: Made $6.5 million in 2018. MLB Trade Rumors predicts a $9.1 million salary via arbitration in 2019. Free agent in 2020.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Two word: He gone. Cashman made it crystal clear that he wants to trade Gray in the offseason. The GM didn't think Gray handled playing in New York well. "This environment can bring out the best in certain individuals," Cashman said. "It can bring out, obviously, the worst in certain individuals. This is a unique environment." Cashman added that he thinks Gray is still very talented and will be just fine elsewhere. But that part kind of sounded like a sales pitch.

Zach Britton

Position: LHP

Age: 30

2018 stats: 2.88 ERA, 25 G, 25 IP

Contract status: Made $12 million in 2018. Free agent after this season.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Britton has said being a closer is no longer necessarily his top priority, but he will probably get paid big closer money in the offseason, and who's turning that down? It won't be the Yankees who give it to him, considering the presence of Aroldis Chapman. Still, Britton was a good fit, a ninth-inning guy who adapted to pitching in the seventh and eighth innings and got better as the season wore on and he put his ruptured right Achilles in the past.

Don't Edit

Neil Walker

Position: UTL

Age: 32

2018 stats: .219 BA, 11 HR, 46 RBI, 113 G, 347 AB, .664 OPS

Contract status: Made $4 million in 2018. Free agent after this season.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Wouldn't be a stunner to see Walker return in his reserve role. He got better at it in the second half, had a bunch of big hits (or at least it felt like it), and he filled in a lot at third base, second base and first base. Walker was very well-liked in the clubhouse, too, with Judge saying he thinks Walker would make a good manager one day.

Jacoby Ellsbury

Age: 35

Position: Center field

2018 stats: None

Contract status: Due $42 million through 2020. Free agent in 2021.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Totally up in the air. It's easy to say the Yankees will just keep him on the disabled list through spring training and however long they can justify it into the regular season to collect insurance money on his clearly terrible contract. But would it be completely out of the question to ask him to serve as the fourth outfielder? OK, probably. Ellsbury likely will never play for the Yankees again.

Don't Edit

David Robertson

Position: RHP

Age: 33

2018 stats: 8-3, 3.23 ERA, 69 G, 69 2/3 IP

Contract status: Made $13 million in 2018. Free agent after this season.

Don't Edit

What's his future? The Yankees should make bringing Robertson back a priority. He's still as selfless as ever, pitching as a stopper anywhere from the middle to late innings. He's also as effective as ever. The worry: His age. But it's not like Robertson has had to smoke the ball past hitters throughout his career anyway. Maybe Robertson will age better than most at his level.

Didi Gregorius

Position: SS

Age: 28

2018 stats: .268 BA, 27 HR, 86 RBI, 134 G, 504 AB, .829 OPS

Contract status: Made $8.25 million in 2018. MLB Trade Rumors predicts a $12.4 million salary for 2019. Free agent in 2020.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Crazy to think the Yankees non-tender Gregorius, thinking he's not worth the full-year commitment when he's missing a half-season due to Tommy John surgery? Eh, maybe, but not totally. Without the injury, Gregorius had entrenched himself as the Yankees' do-it-all shortstop of the future. Soon, he'll be a free agent. The Yankees have a tough decision on whether to let him play out the rest of his deal or try to lock him up early and potentially save a few bucks.

Don't Edit

Gary Sanchez

Position: C

Age: 25

2018 stats: .186 BA, 18 HR, 53 RBI, 89 G, 323 AB, .697 OPS

Contract status: Made $620,000 in 2018. Free agent in 2023.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Cashman said Wednesday in a radio interview that Sanchez will be the Yankees' catcher next year. So, he's not going anywhere. But for how long? He can't hit like he did in 2018. He can't field like he did in 2018, either. Cashman said he was mostly at a loss as to why Sanchez played so poorly this season, but thought early struggles may have affected his confidence. Sanchez needs his swagger back or else the Yankees will move on.

Miguel Andujar

Position: 3B

Age: 23

2018 stats: .297 BA, 27 HR, 92 RBI, 149 G, 573 AB, .855 OPS

Contract status: Made $545,000 in 2018. Free agent in 2024.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Is Andujar's future at third base? Scouts NJ Advance Media spoke to torn on whether the 23-year-old could add the range needed to stick at the position longterm. His hands are fine. His glove his great. His work ethic, exemplified by the near-daily extra groundballs he took, isn't close to a question. It's about ability. Andujar might be better off in left field, where he doesn't have be as quick laterally and where the Yankees have a hole anyway. By the way, there's nothing Andujar can't hit.

Don't Edit

Gleyber Torres

Position: 2B

Age: 21

2018 stats: .271 BA, 24 HR, 77 RBI, 123 G, 431 AB, .820 OPS

Contract status: Made $545,000 in 2018. Free agent in 2024.

Don't Edit

What's his future? With Gregorius' injury, the Yankees might need Torres to shift from second base to shortstop, the position he played coming up. That would probably be fine with Torres, whom Cashman called their current best backup option. But he'll ultimately end up a second baseman or third baseman. And that ain't a bad thing. Torres' future is bright. He led the AL Rookie of the Year conversation until he tailed off in the second half and Andujar just kept hitting.

How did Gregorius' Tommy John go?

Tommy Kahnle

Position: RHP

Age: 28

2018 stats: 6.56 ERA, 24 G, 23 1/2 IP

Contract status: Made $1.3 million in 2018. MLB Trade rumors predicts a $1.5 million salary in 2019. Free agent in 2021.

Don't Edit

What's his future? It's back at Triple-A if Kahnle can't regain the 2 mph he lost from his fastball average from its peak in 2017 of 98 mph. The Yankees gave the diminished right-hander a look late in the season in the majors after a lengthy minor-league stint and he wasn't terrible. But he was far from the dominant arm the Yankees envisioned when they traded for him.

Don't Edit

Greg Bird

Position: 1B

Age: 25

2018 stats: .199 BA, 11 HR, 38 RBI, 82 G, 272 AB, .672 OPS

Contract status: Made $582,000 in 2018. MLB Trade rumors predicts a $1.5 million salary in 2019. Free agent in 2022.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Huge question. For years, the Yankees touted Bird as their longterm first baseman and No. 3 hitter. They wanted to put him between Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton at the top of the order, believing in his power and patience. All that collapsed this year, after he couldn't find a groove following his second right ankle surgery in as many years. Does he still have the ability the Yankees once saw? Or did injuries sap it? Either way, the Yankees aren't counting on Bird to be their starting first baseman on Opening Day in 2019.

Voit's defensive struggles weren't just physical

Luke Voit

Position: 1B

Age: 27

2018 stats: .333 BA, 14 HR, 33 RBI, 39 G, 132 AB, 1.095 OPS

Contract status: Made approximately $535,000 salary in 2018. Free agent in 2024.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Voit brought so much to the Yankees after they acquired him from the Cardinals at the trade deadline. It wasn't just his bat, which carried the Yankees for stretches. It was his linebacker attitude. It was the joy with which he played. And it was the fire he brought to the clubhouse. Voit isn't a particularly good defender but nobody ever said he was. Cashman was asked Wednesday if Voit was a one-hit wonder. He said he didn't know. But Boone has said Voit already has a "leg up" on Bird for the starting job — if the Yankees don't bring in a new first baseman.

Don't Edit

Luis Severino

Position: RHP

Age: 24

2018 stats: 19-8, 3.39 ERA, 32 starts, 191 1/3 IP

Contract status: Made $605,000 in 2018. MLB Trade Rumors predicts a $5.1 million salary in 2019. Free agent in 2023.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Severino should be a rock in the Yankees' rotation for years to come, provided he gets over tipping pitches. It was a big problem for him in the second half in 2018, Cashman said. Sometimes Severino would figure it out. Sometimes he'd just get shelled with hitters knowing what was coming. When he's on, he's a staff ace, but his rough post-All-Star break makes us wonder if he's better off a No. 2.

Masahiro Tanaka

Position: RHP

Age: 29

2018 stats: 12-6, 3.75 ERA, 27 starts, 156 IP

Contract status: Due $45 million through 2020. Free agent in 2021.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Tanaka didn't opt out of his contract before last season. Meaning he's around for at least another two years. The Yankees must be happy. And they must be wondering why he's been a better second-half pitcher than a first-half pitcher the last two years. And then there's always the partial UCL tear lurking in Tanaka's right elbow.

Don't Edit

Brett Gardner

Position: OF

Age: 35

2018 stats: .236 BA, 12 HR, 45 RBI, 140 G, 539 AB, .690 OPS

Contract status: Made $18 million in 2018. Free agent in 2019.

Don't Edit

What's his future? The Yankees should bring Gardner back, but not on the $12.5 million team option in his deal. Instead, they should pay him the $2.5 million for declining the option and work out a deal that pays him closer to what he's worth as a light-hitting but superb-defending outfielder. Gardner would also be missed in the Yankees' clubhouse. Make him the fourth outfielder, move Andujar to left field. That's our suggestion.

Aaron Hicks

Position: CF

Age: 29

2018 stats: .248 BA, 27 HR, 79 RBI, 137 G, 480 AB, .833 OPS

Contract status: Made $2.825 million in 2018. MLB Trade Rumors predicts a $6.2 million salary in 2019. Free agent in 2020.

Don't Edit

What's his future? The Yankees might want to look into extending Hicks. He's a top-of-the-order switch-hitter with maybe the best center field arm in the game and plenty of range. Those don't come cheap.

Don't Edit

Aroldis Chapman

Position: LHP

Age: 30

2018 stats: 2.45 ERA, 32 saves

Contract status: Due $45 million through 2021. Free agent in 2022.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Make no mistake: Chapman will be the Yankees' closer in 2019. Cashman said on Wednesday he expects a full offseason to take care of the left knee tendinitis that landed Chapman on the DL and had him pitching in pain for much of 2018. Amazing how a guy who lost some heat off his fastball was still regularly clocking 99 mph.

Don't Edit

Dellin Betances

Position: RHP

Age: 30

2018 stats: 4-6, 2.70 ERA, 66 G, 66 2/3 IP

Contract status: Made $5.1 million in 2018. MLB Trade Rumors predicts a $6.4 million salary in 2019. Free agent in 2020.

Don't Edit

Don't Edit

What's his future? Tough to say. Betances will be a free agent after next season. He's got a lot of innings on his right arm. How many years like his spectacular 2018 does he have left? Betances keeps himself in good shape — he lost weight going into this season, and it worked. He's one of the quiet leaders on the pitching staff. Not for nothing: Betances was looking forward to free agency after his arbitration battle with team president Randy Levine before the 2017 season. Wonder if that's still in his mind.

Don't Edit

Austin Romine

Position: C

Age: 29

2018 stats: .244 BA, 10 HR, 42 RBI, 77 G, 242 AB, .713 OPS

Contract status: Made $1.1 million in 2018. MLB Trade Rumors predicts a $2 million salary in 2019. Free agent in 2020.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Romine seems safe as the Yankees' backup catcher. The pitching staff likes him. He's a professional. And he hit a career high in home runs this season. Worth questioning, though, if the Yankees want to pay a backup catcher about $2 million and if they would rather bring in someone on the cheap. That said, there's not a lot of quality catching talent out there to be mined.

Don't Edit

Clint Frazier

Position: OF

Age: 23

2018 stats: .265 BA, 0 HR, 1 RBI, 15 G, 34 AB, .743 OPS

Contract status: Major-league salary of $559,000. Free agent in 2024.

Don't Edit

What's his future? The Yankees — and Frazier, of course — hope his post-concussion problems will be cured going into spring training. With Gardner faltering and Judge going on the DL down the stretch, the window would have been plenty open for Frazier to jump in and start thumping his way into a regular big-league spot. Heck, maybe he would have kept Andrew McCutchen out of the Bronx, and maybe we'd be discussing him as the starting left fielder going into 2019. Frazier is too talented not to get another shot.

Justus Sheffield

Position: LHP

Age: 22

2018 stats: Majors: 0-0, 10.13 ERA, 3 G, 2 2/3 IP. Triple-A: 6-4, 2.56 ERA, 20 G, 15 starts, 88 IP

Contract status: Rookie status intact.

Don't Edit

What's his future? If the Yankees have a fifth-starter competition next spring training, Sheffield should get a close look. That the Yankees didn't give him a chance to start last season when they had plenty of opportunities seemed like a sign they didn't think he was ready. Will he be ready in 2019? He's not the Yankees' top pitching prospect for nothing. But his walk problems are going to have to minimize.

Don't Edit

Chad Green

Position: RHP

Age: 26

2018 stats: 8-3, 2.50 ERA, 63 G, 75 2/3 IP

Contract status: Made $571,000 in 2018. Free agent in 2023.

Don't Edit

What's his future? The Yankees will welcome back Green, who has one of the best fastball spin rates in the game. But they'll try to figure out how to use him more effectively. He's said he prefers to be use for multiple innings and he was better when that's the role he had in 2017. It's going to be up to Green to improve, though. Hitters were able to ambush his fastball at time due to his lack of a dependable secondary pitch.

Don't Edit

Jonathan Holder

Position: RHP

Age: 25

2018 stats: 1-3, 3.14 ERA, 60 G, 66 IP

Contract status: $554,000 in 2018. Free agent in 2024.

Don't Edit

Don't Edit

What's his future? Holder seems likely to rejoin the middle section of the Yankees' bullpen, somewhere between the A team and the B team. Holder would be a late-inning guy most places but the Yankees' relief unit is just so good.

Don't Edit

Jonathan Loaisiga

Position: RHP

Age: 23

2018 stats: 2-0, 5.11 ERA, 9 G, 4 starts

Contract status: $545,000 in 2018. Still has rookie status in tact.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Like Sheffield, Loaisiga should get a look in spring training to either be the Yankees' fifth or sixth starting pitcher. His poise and live fastball allowed him to make the rare jump from Double-A to the majors – and perform at a high level at times.

Don't Edit

Domingo German

Position: RHP

Age: 25

2018 stats: 2-6, 5.57 ERA, 21 G, 14 starts, 85 2/3 IP

Contract status: Made $548,000 in 2018. Free agent in 2024.

Don't Edit

What's his future? German appears better suited for middle-inning relief work, where repeating his delivery would probably be less of an issue and he could keep his command in check. German was effective as a starter early into his audition when Jordan Montgomery went down. But that didn't last too long.

Don't Edit

Luis Cessa

Position: RHP

Age: 26

2018 stats: 1-4, 5.24 ERA, 16 G, 5 starts

Contract status: Made $568,000 in 2018. Free agent in 2023.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Cessa will be out of big-league options next year. The Yankees could try to trade him if they don't see a spot for him or give him one last chance in spring training to either fit into the back end of the rotation or the bullpen. Or maybe they finally just switch him to short relief, where his fastball plays up. The Yankees keep giving him shots based off the promise he's shown at Triple-A.

Don't Edit

Lance Lynn

Position: RHP

Age: 31

2018 stats: 3-2, 4.14 ERA, 11 G, 9 starts

Contract status: Made $12 million in 2018. Free agent after season.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Lynn probably wants to still be a starting pitcher somewhere. Hard to imagine him sticking around with the Yankees, where he wasn't very good after the trade that brought him over from the Twins.

Contract status: Made $555,000 in 2018. Free agent in 2024.

Don't Edit

What's his future? The Yankees obviously saw something in Cole that told them after they claimed him off waivers from the Nationals that he was worth keeping around. Just not many fans got to see it. It wouldn't surprise us to see Cole gone at some point in the offseason to make 40-man roster space. And it wouldn't shock us if the Yankees find a way to make Cole more useful next season.

Contract status: Made approximately $535,000 in 2018. Free agent in 2024.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Higashioka will head to Triple-A again and wait for another big-league shot if either Sanchez or Romine go down. He's got pop and he's a good defender though his arm has been a weak spot.

Chance Adams

Position: RHP

Age: 24

2018 stats: 4-5, 4.78 ERA, 27 G, 23 S, 113 IP

Contract status: Rookie status intact.

Don't Edit

What's his future? Adams, a former top pitching prospect, should be much better after spending the first half of the 2018 season recovering from offseason elbow surgery. But is he a starter? A reliever? The Yankees moved him from the bullpen to the rotation after drafting him because they believed his delivery was simple and repeatable enough and the stuff was there.

2018 stats: .194 BA, 2 HR, 2 RBI, 18 G, 36 AB, .577 OPS

Contract status: Made $5.9 million in 2018. Free agent after season.

Don't Edit

What's his future? There are a lot of talented shortstop defenders who don't hit all across Triple-A. The Yankees may want to go with one of them instead. Then again, they brought him in because he was an upgrade over Ronald Torreyes. So maybe it's his job that isn't as much in jeopardy … though Hechavarria is heading into free agency.

Don't Edit

Ronald Torreyes

Position: INF

Age: 25

2018 stats: .280 BA, 0 HR, 7 RBI, 41 G, 100 AB, .664 OPS

Contract status: Made $571,000 in 2018. MLB Trade Rumors predicts $900,000 salary in 2019. Free agent in 2022.

Don't Edit

What's his future? The Yankees didn't have much of a role this season for The Toe Night Show with Walker, Torres and Hechavarria around. Add Tyler Wade, who has the higher ceiling, into the mix, and Torreyes could be the odd man out again.

Wade will end up a starting shortstop — somewhere — but maybe not next season.
