The Yankees begin their final series of the season on Friday night in Kansas City.
The left-hander doesn’t need anyone to tell him that he didn’t earn much of the $22 million that he banked in season one of his six-year, $162-million contract.
All the while, the Yankees sputtered their way to a first no-playoffs season since 2016 with 38 IL stints for 28 players. Before Thursday night’s game, a 6-0 Yankees loss to the Blue Jays, Rodon talked with NJ Advance Media for 25 minutes. He was honest and revealing in the Q&A, especially when making a very strong defense for the Yankees’ training staff.That’s a nice way to put it. I’ve done OK the last couple starts. The last one I thought I was pretty efficient pitching into the seventh. but we still lost the game, so that hurts. Going into this last start. I just want to have fun.
You can tell that you care. You’re intense on the mound. You were disgusted when you were on the IL. You talk about wanting to win all the time. You probably can’t wait for this season to get over.Me? I’m going to get away, man. You won’t find me. I’ll be gone.I’ll be here, but you won’t find me. I have a place not far from Kansas City. I’ll drive there after Sunday’s game and spend some time by myself. Just me. No wife. No kids. I want some time to not think about baseball.
The problem here is the Yankees probably won’t win until the injuries slow down. This has been a big issue five years in a row, maybe longer. Everybody gets hurt. Changes are coming after the season and the training staff could be affected in addition to other areas, probably the analytics staff.Honestly, that’s the powers that be who will make those calls. As a player, all I can do is perform and try to win ballgames. That’s the biggest thing for me.
Give me an example of something conditioning wise that you noticed this season that didn’t occur when you played for other teams.Every resource is available and it’s not always like that everywhere else. Anything available, they will look into it no matter what it is. Our trainers spend numerous hours with guys after the game. Today is a getaway day. We’re not going to get to Kansas City probably until 3 in the morning because they’ll be treating guys after the game for an hour.
