As Carlos Rodón prepared to clock out on Opening Day, he couldn’t help but feel proud of himself. Thrust into the season’s first game after a painful spring chipped away at the Yankees’ rotation, the lefty had just totaled 5.1 innings, one earned run, two walks and seven strikeouts in a 4-2 win over Milwaukee at Yankee Stadium. While the strikeouts were nice, Rodón made sure to mention that he induced some soft contact as he utilized five different offerings, including a new sinker.

Ryan Yarbrough had known nothing but success in the Yankees’ rotation, but that changed in a 10-7 loss to the Red Sox on Saturday night. The junk-balling lefty, lacking his best stuff, surrendered eight earned runs over just four innings in the Bronx. Yarbrough, a longtime swingman making his sixth start for the Yankees, had allowed just eight earned runs over his previous nine outings and 36 innings. He had also not allowed more than two earned runs in a start this season.

It wasn’t a surprise to see Anthony Volpe’s name missing from the Yankees’ lineup when it was posted in the team’s clubhouse on Saturday afternoon. The shortstop took a hit-by-pitch to his left elbow in the bottom of the second inning on Friday when Red Sox starter Walker Buehler misfired an 88.8-mph changeup. The pitch came with the bases juiced and forced a runner in. It also left Volpe aching, as trainers had to check on him.

After playing an instrumental role in a 9-6 win over the Red Sox on Friday, Jazz Chisholm Jr. said something that might strike some as strange coming from the mouth of a professional athlete. The Yankees’ third baseman said that he’s been playing at 70% since returning from an oblique strain on Tuesday. Not 100%. And certainly not the 110% that athletes love to tout. Seventy.

Max Fried & Carlos Rodón were introduced years ago by Lucas Giolito. They initially clicked over Call of Duty. "For me, it was like a friend I hadn’t seen in a while," Rodón said of the #Yankees signing Fried. “He showed up here and we just hit it off.” https://t.co/nLE5uqmUME
Max Fried's impact on Carlos Rodón has certainly been felt, as the latter is putting up his best numbers with the #Yankees in terms of soft contact, hard-hit%, barrel% & groundball% as he goes deeper into games with an expanded arsenal. But Matt Blake sees strikeouts becoming a
On Opening Day, Carlos Rodón proudly noted the soft contact he induced. "That's new for me... That's what Max [Fried] does... I would love to do that." In the weeks since, the #Yankees lefties have formed a "symbiotic" bond as their games blend together: https://t.co/nLE5uqmmX6
