Randy Vásquez Stats

New York Yankees rookie right-hander Randy Vasquez came on in relief on Sunday in the 7-1 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks and surrendered two earned runs on three hits while walking two and striking out two in 2 1/3 innings after replacing starter Carlos Rodon. For the final week of the regular season, Vasquez is likely to continue coming out of the bullpen with Luke Weaver settling into the fifth spot in the starting rotation. The 24-year-old Dominican has only appeared in 10 games (five starts) for the Yankees in his first major-league season, but he's been decent, posting a 2.91 ERA (5.35 FIP), 1.23 WHIP, 16 walks and 27 strikeouts in 34 innings. However, he's also been pretty fortunate given his 10.7 percent walk rate.

New York Yankees rookie right-hander Randy Vasquez is scheduled to start this Wednesday on the road against the Atlanta Braves. Vasquez has only made four appearances in the majors for the Yankees this year, with his most recent outing coming on Aug. 11 in relief against the Miami Marlins. He picked up his second win of the year and allowed two earned runs on three hits while walking one and striking out two in 3 2/3 innings. Given all the injuries to Yankees starting pitchers, there's a real chance the 24-year-old will stick in New York's starting rotation the rest of the season. In his 19 innings pitched in 2023, the Dominican hurler has a nice 1.89 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 12 strikeouts in four outings (three starts).

New York Yankees rookie right-hander Randy Vasquez is in the team's clubhouse on Tuesday and has a good chance to start on Wednesday against the Chicago White Sox in place of injured left-hander Nestor Cortes (shoulder), who is expected to land on the injured list. In his major-league debut against the San Diego Padres on May 26, Vasquez was hit with a loss when he allowed two runs on four hits (one homer) while walking three and striking out six in 4 2/3 innings of work. The club's No. 12 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, has gone 1-6 with a 5.13 ERA, 1.63 WHIP, 26 walks and 55 strikeouts in 10 starts for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in 2023. The matchup will be a better one for Vasquez in his second MLB start, and his strikeout upside could make him worth streaming consideration in deeper leagues.
