Osiel Rodriguez was signed by the Yankees in 2018, and until recently, has been limited to the rookie leagues for any significant amount of time. He was recently promoted to Single-A Tampa, and he has a 1.57 ERA in 27 innings pitched so far this season. Note: This interview has been translated from Spanish, and may read a little clunky or unnatural. Before the recording started, we were talking about his pitches and he said how his fastball moved like a sinker, so that’s where we started.

It has been a season most Yankee fans would like to quickly forget, but hopefully there is a bright yellow sun over the horizon for Aaron Boone’s club.
