The Yankees are AL East champions with seven games to spare, which means it’s the perfect time to bring back one of mu favorite series: Separation. This season, I’ve tried to feature a selection of Yankees pitchers who have tweaked their arsenals, mechanics, or pitch shapes to create separation between the movement profiles of their offerings. Today, I’d like to look at rookie reliever Ron Marinaccio.
Marinaccio has been a revelation for the Yankees, never appearing among the top prospects in the organization, yet earning somewhat of a surprise call-up at the beginning of the year.
