So far, excepting a Clarke Schmidt injury, the New York Yankees’ grand rotation plot is going according to plan.
Acquire high-upside pitchers needing a bounce back (Corey Kluber, Jameson Taillon)? Keep them healthy? So far, both men have dominated with a clean bill.
Add plenty of lottery tickets to help add depth to the mix? Jhoulys Chacin isn’t performing particularly well, and neither is Asher Wojciechowski (who’ll likely say goodbye soon), but they’ve served their role as innings-eating bodies.
