The Yankees have lost a season high... two games in a row.
Turn it around!
The line-ups:
YANKEES:
Volpe - SS
Soto - RF
Judge - CF
Stanton - DH
Rizzo - 1B
Torres- 2B
Verdugo - LF
Trevino - C
Cabrera - 3B Rodon - P
BLUE JAYS:
Springer - RF
Guererro - 1B
Bichette - SS
Turner - DH
Schneider - LF
Jansen - C
Clement - 3B
IKF - 2B
Varsho - CF Kikuchi - P
I have said this often in the past. Alex Verdugo absolutely OWNS Toronto relief ace Jordan Romano.
And they are not batting for Trevino why?
Clayton Beeter was named as Minor League Baseball's "Pitcher of the Week" for April 8-14.
He allowed one hit and struck out eight batters over five shutout innings in the RailRiders 3-0 win at Norfolk on Saturday, April 13. I think he may be ready for New York.
TJ Rumfield was promoted from AA to AAA Scranton Wilkes Barre today, so a potential reinforcement at 1B is one step closer.
Anyone else here getting annoyed at the Yankee organization on their philosophy on pitch counts? Rodón is just another starter that has a high PPI. When does Blake, Briend, or someone start taking some heat instead of saying 'bullpen is stretched again:, or 'the starter didn't make into the 6th inning against'?
