Eric Lauer takes the mound this afternoon at 3:35 PT in New York. The 23 year old left hander is coming off his best back to back starts of the year. He didn’t allow a walk or home run in either outing. He combined for 12 2⁄3 innings and 2 ER.
Here are a few things to watch for.
Lauer has given up a home run in 6 of his 10 starts
I suppose this is considered normal in today’s game, but it’s still an area of concern.
