Carlos Rodon gets clobbered again as Yankees’ losing skid hits four games
NY Post
TORONTO — In a span of three starts, Carlos Rodon’s ERA has inflated from 2.93 to 4.42, and that is not just the work of the Canadian exchange rate.
Neither is the Yankees going from 49-21 to 52-31 in just over two weeks.
But one of the key components fueling their recent skid has been their starting pitching falling off, which continued Thursday night at Rogers Centre.
The Blue Jays became the latest team to pounce on Rodon and his fastball, jumping out to an eight-run lead and handing the Yankees their season-high fourth straight loss, 9-2.
“They put some really good swings on some fastballs tonight that I didn’t execute,” Rodon said. “It was not fun.”
Coming off a Subway Series in which the Mets rocked Gerrit Cole and Luis Gil, Rodon could not stop the bleeding as the Yankees lost for the 10th time in their last 13 games.
