The 1993 New York Yankees season was the 91st season for the Yankees. The team finished with a record of 88–74 finishing 7 games behind the Toronto Blue Jays for their first winning season since 1988, but they still missed the playoffs for the 12th consecutive season — in what was the longest active streak of missing the playoffs in franchise history.

New York was managed by Buck Showalter. The Yankees played at Yankee Stadium. This would be the last time the Yankees would miss the playoffs until 2008.
