Carlos Rodon Aims To Build On Encouraging Run
8 months agoThe New York Yankees, winners of eight out of their last nine games, look to complete consecutive series sweeps when starting pitcher Carlos Rodon takes the bump for Thursday's start versus the Detroit Tigers. While it's been a mostly poor year for the 30-year-old, he has shown signs of life lately with a 2.87 ERA (5.37 FIP) with 12 strikeouts in his last three starts (15.2 innings pitched) off the second injured list stint of his 2023. Rodon has declawed the Tigers for a 1.86 ERA and 41 punchouts in 29 IP (five starts) against Detroit since 2021. It's a short Thursday slate as usual, and the hard-throwing southpaw represents a tempting DFS pivot off the pricier SP options considering the matchup.
