Another start, another disappointing effort for Carlos Rodon. The lefty, acquired by the Yankees on a six-year, $162 million deal in the offseason, lasted four innings in a 5-2 loss to the Rays on …
“I wish I was a lot better than I was, that’s for sure,” Rodon said.
Despite showing promising glimpses in two of his five starts this season the other three have been subpar — including Tuesday against the Rays, the Yankees’ second loss of the three-game series.“I think the struggle was that they prolonged it badly,” Boone said. “So, I thought he was good at the top of the zone on his fastball, but they were able to spoil, spoil, spoil, and then which led to the few walks.
“Yeah, for sure,” Rodon said, when asked if he felt inconsistent at times during the game. “As you saw the two walks, leadoff walk in the second inning. … Then I fell behind the count … they started making me pay. I was not good with the demand on the side of the fastball, unfortunately. “I didn’t feel the fatigue, but they definitely made me work. Good pitches and made good contact on good pitches, and there’s just a good lineup.”
