The New York Yankees have secured a spot in the 2025 MLB playoffs but their specific opponent is not yet determined. They could face teams such as the Houston Astros, Boston Red Sox, or Detroit Tigers in the Wild Card round, as these are likely opponents depending on finalized standings and seeding. The Yankees are still in pursuit of the American League East division title, which would allow them to bypass the Wild Card round and await a lower-seeded opponent in the Division Series. Currently, the Toronto Blue Jays hold the tiebreaker over the Yankees in the division race, making the Yankees likely a Wild Card team facing one of the other wild card qualifiers in the first playoff round.
