I may not survive the yankee season if they keep up with the Rodon excuses. Like we have to go down on the guy because he pitched 6 innings. He's given up 5 runs Francis take a seat with the "he's a warrior" compliments. Both the radio and TV crew have done this.
The construction is yet again asinine. You have both speed/contact players (Volpe/Chisolhm) “protecting” Judge, rather than hitting in front of him and both power bats hitting in front of him.
Trying not to make him the next Gleyber, IE the yankee I can't stand. But the radio and YES crews are making it extremely difficult. They are sucking Rodon nonstop. Tonight they keep on talking about his start like it was amazing. 6 scoreless innings is solid. But he gave up 4 walks and had runners on every inning. It's ten times worse when the crews are not in reality with a players performance.
Rodon sucks and he was a terrible signing but why complain about him when he had a good game? Pitching out of jams is a part of having a good start sometimes…
I mean, I wrote in my post he had a solid start with 6 scoreless innings. I'm not crowning him for it. Pitching out of jams is important. So is not getting into them every 1.5 innings or you'll get bit.
Williams needs like 10 plus days off and to come in in low leverage situations. He's totally lost. He will have every opportunity to get back to his role with the current yankee bullpen.
Can’t keep forcing it with him. Give him a couple days off and 6th inning work for 3 weeks and let Weaver close then work him back into the setup role.
