According to NJ.com, Maybin, who briefly played for the Yankees before entering the broadcast world, said:
He added that Rodon’s stuff will carry him through even poor starts:
Adding a special talent to a rotation with a few other exceptional pitchers can be the move a team looks back on after winning a championship. The Yankees would love it if that were the case.
Does Carlos Rodon make the Yankees the World Series favorite?
The New York Yankees made the ALCS last season and were one of the best teams in baseball for most of the season. They were swept and fell short of their ultimate goal and looked to free agency to get over the hump.
Oddsmakers think the return of Aaron Judge and the addition of Carlos Rodon makes them a good choice for next year’s World Series champions. BetMGM has them the current favorites alongside a couple of teams:
Yankees +650Astros +650New York Mets +650Los Angeles Dodgers +8000Atlanta Braves +1000
Any team can win it all, but it certainly looks like Carlos Rodon’s presence means the Yankees might finally do it.
