TAMPA — Yankees prospect Jordan Montgomery has come out of nowhere to shove himself into the discussion for the club's rotation battle, which has been mostly underwhelming.
Yankees beat reporter Brendan Kuty covers that and other topics below.
So, does he make it? I’m going to say no, for now. That could change. The rest of the rotation candidates could bomb — they haven’t been good as it is. But the Yankees don’t need a fifth starter until the 12th game of the season, and it’s more likely either Bryan Mitchell or Luis Severino get the fourth starter job.
