This afternoon, the New York Yankees faced the Twins of Édouard Julien. It was Gerrit Cole who had the task of facing the Twins hitters.
First, let’s note that the Quebecer did not manage to place the ball in play. He has not done so since his game of two hits, including a long ball.
But today, it is difficult to throw the first rock since only two hits have been hit by the Twins batters against Cole.
The latter threw a full game of 109 shots in a 2-0 victory.
Pablo Lopez (quality start) also did well on the mound, but let’s say that under the circumstances, it’s hard to top Cole.
What’s interesting in New York is that the Yankees and Blue Jays have to fight for every inch in the division. The Rays’ start to the season forces them to rise.
And like the Blue Jays lost a big game to Tampa Bay with Alek Manoah on the mound.
Cole, with several absent in the Yankees’ rotation, is precisely the pitcher the Bombardiers need. This season, he is 4-0 with a 0.95 GAA.
If he continues like this, he will be able to help his team as best as possible. And when a guy like Carlos Rodon is back, it will give a 1-2 punches interesting.
Can he continue like this? His manager thinks so since he sees him go to the Hall of Fame.
- Four to six weeks for Giancarlo Stanton?
- Cody Bellinger homered to Chavez Ravine.
