You wondered as good as their torpedo-bat offense was if it could outscore the mistakes. If the deep, strong bullpen would be able to withstand the workload.
Carlos Rodón was virtually untouched through six scoreless, two-hit innings, and the Yankees’ bullpen took care of the rest in a 1-0 shutout of the Rangers.
A strong bat and gifted defender who can play anywhere — including third base — and who won a Silver Slugger as utilityman last season sure would be useful to the Yankees right now.
