7 years agoSince returning from the disabled list, Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Marcus Stroman found success in two stellar outings against the Los Angeles Angels and Detroit Tigers. In perhaps the juiciest matchup of the three against the lowly New York Mets, however, Stroman was unfortunately lit up. In a 6-3 loss to the Amazins on Wednesday, Stroman allowed six earned runs on six hits and four walks across 4 2/3 innings pitched while striking out only two. Stroman has his most difficult test since returning on Wednesday in Atlanta against the Braves, and we wouldn’t recommend starting him in that one after he couldn’t find any success against possibly MLB’s worst offense.--John Smith

1 month agoNew York Yankees starting pitcher Marcus Stroman will not make his scheduled start on Tuesday. Instead, the right-hander will stay in Tampa to pitch live batting practice. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status during camp but he is currently facing an uphill battle to open the season in the rotation. He is currently penciled in to be the No. 6 option behind Clarke Schmidt (back) but could slide into the rotation if Schmidt continues to be limited due to his current injury. Schmidt has been limited during the early part of camp but is unlikely to miss time in the regular season. As a result, Stroman will likely open the 2025 campaign in a long relief role. Last season, Stroman held a 4.31 ERA and a 1.47 WHIP across 154 2/3 innings. He tallied 113 punchouts and generated a high 4.94 xERA. Stroman will carry little fantasy value if he opens the season in the bullpen.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

1 month agoNew York Yankees right-hander Marcus Stroman will start the team's first Grapefruit League game on Friday against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays, per manager Aaron Boone. As things currently stand, the veteran Stroman is on the outside looking in for an Opening Day starting rotation spot, but the 33-year-old said last week that he doesn't plan on pitching in a relief role. Clarke Schmidt is dealing with a "cranky back," which could open up a rotation spot, but he also has plenty of time to get ready for Opening Day. Stroman went 10-9 with a 4.31 ERA and 1.47 WHIP with only 113 strikeouts in 154 2/3 innings over 30 outings (29 starts) in his first year in the Bronx in 2024. His 16.7 percent strikeout rate was the worst of his career, and his velocity was also noticeably down. Stroman has always been a ground-ball artist, but a rebound is unlikely at his age, and finding a starter's workload could be a challenge.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

1 month agoNew York Yankees starting pitcher Marcus Stroman told reporters that he won't be pitching out of the bullpen. The two-time All-Star has made it clear that he's a starting pitcher and he has no desire to pitch out of the bullpen for the Yankees. As of right now, Stroman is on the outside looking in considering the Yankees already have five capable starters. The team hasn't made any announcements about possibly shifting to a six-man rotation, so it's safe to assume that's not on the table right now. The Yankees have been attempting to trade Stroman, but a $18.3 million option for the 2026 season is getting in the way. Stroman would certainly be the "next man up" if someone gets hurt, but they don't want to pay $18.5 million to a depth pitcher. Fantasy managers might want to push Stroman down on their draft boards as this certain continues to look murky as it goes on.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller

1 month agoNew York Yankees right-hander Marcus Stroman has yet to report to spring training. Stroman technically doesn't have to report to camp until Feb. 22, but his absence is noteworthy with the rest of the team's pitchers and catchers having reported. The 33-year-old could be making a statement after the Yankees moved him to the bullpen late last year and then signed lefty Max Fried to an eight-year deal in the offseason. As things stand now, Stroman will likely be on the outside looking in for a rotation spot if New York rolls with a five-man rotation to start the 2025 season. In his first year in the Bronx, Stroman went 10-9 with a 4.31 ERA (4.62 FIP), 1.47 WHIP and 113:60 K:BB in 154 2/3 innings over 30 outings (29 starts). His strikeout rate fell to a career-worst 16.7% and also saw his velocity dip. A rebound at his age is unlikely, especially if he's relegated to a long-relief role.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
