Analysis
With the omission of launchers like Marcos Stromman and Mark Leiter Jr.manager Aaron Boone He has clearly opted for speed over shooting depth against Kansas City.
Stroman didn’t have a great season and really faltered in the second half of the year after a tremendous first half, something of a trend for the right-hander lately.
In 30 games (29 starts), the 33-year-old, who signed a two-year, $37 million contract with New York in the offseason, went 10-9 and pitched to a 4.31 ERA in 154.2 innings.
It’s not on the list either. Antonio Rizzo, which is not a surprise after he broke two fingers from a blow and revealed that would not be available on friday.
Out since Sept. 20 with a right pectoral strain, Cousins was activated from the 15-day disabled list on Saturday and placed on the postseason roster.
