Our friend Carlos Rodon is on the bump for New York today, and we’ll be attacking him early and often. Rodon is allowing a .223 xISO to righties and .263 xISO to lefties over the past 30 days. His fastball is getting pulverized, as he’s allowed a .441 xISO to lefties and .223 xISO to righties when throwing the heater. Four Astros own above a .280 xISO against the fastball, with three over .300. Jose Urquidy is going to start and go a few innings, with J.P. France following him. Judge and Stanton will be tough to navigate, but outside of those two, there shouldn’t be too much trouble in the Yankees lineup. We’re confident in the Astros getting after Rodon today and would take this to -110.
