Through 81 2/3 innings in 2018, Eduardo Rodriguez has performed well, with a 3.59 skill-interactive ERA (SIERA), 26.1% strikeout rate, and 26.4% hard-hit rate. However, he faces a very tough challenge tonight in an AL East showdown with the New York Yankees.
This year, the Bronx Bombers have rocked left-handers for a .348 weighted on-base average (wOBA, 2nd), .216 isolated power (ISO, 1st), and 38.6% hard-hit rate (5th). To say they're a top-five offense against southpaws would be an understatement.
Add in a date at Yankee Stadium, which ranks sixth in ESPN's park factor in 2018, and Rodriguez is in a prime spot to get the boot early tonight.
