The New York Yankees just keep on rolling. With last night’s 7-0 thumping of the Miami Marlins at the Stadium, the Yankees are now 9-2 and will go for their fourth straight win when the two clubs play the middle game of their 3-game set tonight in the Bronx. It was evident last night that the Marlins have trouble with southpaws and they will face another one tonight when Carlos Rodón takes the hill for New York. Rodón has pitched well in his first two starts, posting a 2.79 ERA, a WHIP of 1.76, and he is 1-0 in career against Miami with a 1.64 ERA. A.J. Puk is expected on the hill for the Marlins. Puk, who has always been a reliever, made two starts this year and they have not gone well. He is 0-2 with an ERA of 9.00 and a 2.83 WHIP. New York is averaging over 5 runs per game, and if Puk isn’t in the zone, the Yankees will show no mercy.
