New York Yankees DFS SPIN
Carlos Rodón yielded two runs in 4 2/3 innings and struck out seven versus the Rays on Sunday. Rodón was pulled with a 4-2 lead after walking two in the fifth. Ian Hamilton was able to strand the runners and protect the lead initially after taking over, but he went on to give up four runs in the sixth. Rodon’s seven strikeouts are his high total in eight starts this season, and he allowed just two hard-hit balls today. He didn’t issue any walks until the fourth. It was an encouraging showing, even if it didn’t end very well.
Detroit Tigers DFS SPIN
Miguel Cabrera homered in a loss to the Astros on Sunday. In the eighth inning, Cabrera took Phil Maton deep 391 feet for his third home run of the season. It was a three run shot, which gives the veteran 24 RBI in his final season. Miggy has become a part-time player for Detroit, playing primarily against lefties while hitting .248/.318/.343 on the year.

Give me Detroit. Over his last three starts, Severino owns a 4.91 ERA but a 7.16 FIP, while the Yankees have struggled offensively over their last 13 games, posting an 80 wRC+ in the process. As for Olson, his ERA over his last three starts (13 1/3 innings) is 6.75, but his 4.10 FIP suggests he’s pitching much better than his ERA would indicate. The Tigers have also been at least an average team offensively, posting a 101 wRC+ over the past two weeks.
