    Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters that Carlos Rodón played catch before Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.
    Boone also said that the plan is for the 30-year-old to continue his throwing program before moving to the next step, which is throwing a bullpen session. Rodón experienced back soreness earlier this month after missing the beginning of the season with a forearm strain. He is expected to return to the Yankees rotation sometime in May.

    <_<

    Yanks taking their sweet ass time with their injured starting pitchers. Severino also just started live batters last week and then will go to a minor league rehab assignment before joining rotation.

    I like my team a lot this year.  Hopefully I can actually do something with it this time.

    C – Alejandro Kirk

    1B – Vlad Guerrero Jr

    2B – Marcus Semien

    SS – Bo Bichette

    3B – Jose Ramirez

    OF – George Springer

    OF – Teoscar Hernandez

    OF – Lourdes Gurriel Jr

    UT – Daulton Varsho

    B – Danny Jansen-C, Matt Chapman-3B, Randall Grichuk-OF (DTD), Aledmys Diaz-1B,2B,SS,3B,OF

    SP – Alek Manoah

    SP – Luis Severino

    RP – Jordan Romano

    RP – Kendall Graveman

    P – Bryan Baker

    P – Carl Edwards Jr

    P – Tim Mayza

    B - Robbie Ray-SP2, Chris Bassit-SP3, Taijuan Walker-SP3, Matt Boyd-SP3 (but quals only as RP yet), Ross Stripling-SP4, Jose Berrios-SP4, Daniel Hudson-RP (DTD), Liam Hendriks-RP (DTD)

     

    Brandon Belt-1B (dropped), Rowdy Tellez-1B (ww-excl), Jon Berti-2B,3B,SS,OF (ww-excl), Cavan Biggio-1B,2B,OF (ww-excl), Santiago Espinal-2B,3B,SS (ww-excl), Gabriel Moreno-C (ww-excl), Yan Gomes-C, (ww-excl), Kevin Smith-3B,SS (ww-excl) all positional MLB rostered that I can reach to.  Good mix of Power and Speed.  All positions covered with the mutil-position eligibility for many of them.  Had to get Diaz on the roster as lambert could have as well.  Not expecting much from him but that he can play EVERY position and looks to be closing in on regular ABs and playtime at DH if not the SS position he might win out.

    SP WW - Yusei Kikuchi only WW exclusive not on my roster that I'll swing into my rotation.  RP I have a few exclusives that I'll rotate in as well as roles are finalized starting the season and a few of these DTD most likely hit the IR when it opens.

    My Infield when I took Jose went from really good to on paper the best in the league potentially.  ranked 3, 2, 5, 1 around the diamond per Yahoo site today.  OF lacks the superstar so that's where a trade market may take me if injuries <cough-Springer-cough> were to get me but maybe RF does him safer while KK roams the defensive center most days.  Open to offers.
    'm happy with my pitching setup entering the season.  Hopefully a good combo of all the stats.  Won't dominate anything there unless the resurgence of Berrios and Kukuchi play way above last season.  Could be homer relying too much on the way they look so far.

    Don't love it. Thought about a riskier pick with more upside but went with the "safer" option

    Gallen.  Yeah on my short list too and about how I felt about Severino.  Just thought as a (f-ing) Yankee the wins and run support would be easier to come by.  And if he's truly healthy then he's been in the Cy Young talk only a few years ago and he just entering his prime age.

    In the past didn't we just add two scrubs and finish the league then let everyone add/ drop their supp players?

    bbascom texted me last night and asked the same thing.  Think we've done it both ways but we may (read ME) may have screwed up when completing the draft and starting the league which technically places 2 empty spots on the roster.  Those 27 and 28 round picks.  Like WW says both ways work but this still keeps rosters locked and people can't be making a bunch of changes prior to the the supplemental.

    Yeah as of now I'll pull the balls tomorrow and we can start Monday with no rush. People can take their time making picks, no clock or skipping. 

    And no complaining unless we get to 2-3 days of opening day.  Then we can panic.

    idk how some of you guys didn't miss any players... good for you! lol.

    I definitely "lost" on some but when the dice rolled I knew 2 of my top 5 would be gone.  Just had to play it to maximize priority and minimize loss.

    Gausman - LOST - no choice.

    Stroman - LOST - picked Bassitt

    Donaldson - LOST - deferred on him, I have plenty of 3B options

    Merrifield - LOST - way too high for me to compete and I got Semien for the slot

    Matz - LOST - got Robbie Ray instead

    Drury - LOST - too high price for me but also have the positional coverage

    Hand, Tepera, Loup, Adam, Castro, Hutchinson - LOST - matter of choice and available for the RP

    Kiermaier - LOST - picked Grichuk 

    Urshela - LOST - see Donaldson

    it took till 10.7 for my second pick to go.  I only lost Jorge Soler and Liam Hendriks (is he even going to play anytime soon) to other frafters? 

     

    :bench:

    Not sure when he comes back which is why I waited so long to take him.  Figure I'll be putting him on DL and hope he's back in a month or 2.  It costs me nothing at this point.  I'll be replacing on the roster with one of the exclusive RP that I also want on my roster.

    Other P on bench – Ross Stripling, Jose Berrios, Yusei Kikuchi, Taijuan Walker, Matt Boyd

    Bench but will likely start on DL – Liam Hendriks, Daniel Hudson

    Got a number of still relevant players exclusive to me but also that I can’t see being drafted.  Anyone need a Catcher let me know.  I might run Varsho at C if he and other bats that aren’t a fulltime C get hot.  The supplemental will certainly be a BPA thought for me.

    Can’t say I really had anyone in the draft stolen from me.  Once the order came out I kinda knew who or what I’d miss.  Drury who was exclusive to me until last year going in the 2nd round was step for me to pay for a guy who only once in his 8 years has really prompted for fulltime fantasy roster spot.  While he does qualify at 3 positions it still would have been a bench luxury for me.
    So minus Whit and KK I have my entire TOR positional roster.  And for now just missing 1 pitcher so it’s a true homer fix for me as well with a few add-ins.
