Can Drew Rasmussen Continue Success Against Yankees?
12 months agoTampa Bay Rays pitcher Drew Rasmussen will take the mound against the Yankees in the Bronx on Thursday night. He hurled 5.2 scoreless innings of New York in his last start. In 14 innings against New York for his career, the 27-year-old has 19 strikeouts and is yet to give up a run versus the Yanks. The righty induces a lot of soft contact, registering a 28.4% hard-hit rate against him across 37.2 innings this year. After beating up on Athletics pitching, the Yankees are scoring 8.8 runs per game over their last four outings, but that shouldn't deter fantasy managers from starting Rasmussen against a team he's performed well against in his career.
