Esmil Rogers stellar in mop up duty against the Mets
by Chris Zolli | Sat, Apr 25th 6:05pm EDT
Coming in with a runner on first after CC Sabathia pitched five innings, Esmil Rogers allowed that runner, Juan Lagares, to score, but pitched three strong innings. Rogers allowed three hits, one run, and struck out three batters.
Fantasy Impact:
Rogers has pitched 12 2/3 innings this season and has a 2.92 ERA and a 0.95 WHIP; those numbers may be good enough for Rogers to challenge Adam Warren for the fifth spot in the rotation. Rogers also has 11 strikeouts this season and only two walks allowed. Warren has a 5.40 ERA and eight walks in 15 innings this season and the Yankees may very soon look to Rogers to fill the backend of the rotation.
