The Yankees assess their starting rotation options, including recent debuts of Allan Winans and Cam Schlittler due to injuries. Clarke Schmidt is out for the season, creating opportunities for others. Luis Gil may return, but requires time to build stamina. Winans had a stellar Triple-A record with a 0.90 ERA before struggling in his major league debut, while Carlos Carrasco continues to perform well in the minors, increasing the potential for strategic options in the rotation.
After posting a 0.90 ERA through his first 50 Triple-A innings, Allan Winans finally got the call on June 23rd to start against the Cincinnati Reds. The results were disappointing, as he allowed seven runs (six earned) in 6.1 innings before getting sent back down on the Scranton Shuttle. Yet, Winans picked up right where he left off at Triple-A, recording his eighth and ninth consecutive wins for the RailRiders, proving he remains the next man up should a need arise.
Carlos Carrasco, after his ouster from the big-league roster in early May, continues to perform well in Scranton. The 38-year-old, who was primarily a swingman for a while, is now back in the starting role, having thrown seven innings and 86 pitches in his last appearance.
