NYY News: Rotation rounding into form
New York Daily News | Gary Phillips: Three-fifths of the intended Opening Day starting rotation is on the IL, with Gerrit Cole out for the year while Luis Gil and Marcus Stroman try to rehab and rejoin the club. Despite those blows, the Yankee rotation is rounding into form well, not just because of Max Fried. The starting staff was the worst in baseball in the season's first two weeks, but since then boast the second-best ERA in the game. The only squad better is the Texas Rangers, so this week should be a fun series.
| Jacob Foster: A cadre of writers cast their votes for Rookie of the Year favorites now that we're about a quarter of the way through the season. Jasson Domínguez, still just 22, gets himself some scattered votes but no first-place slots, as the outfielder has earned himself everyday playing time, but doesn't quite measure up to the top two first-year players in the American League. The Martian still has three quarters of the season to catch up.

FanGraphs | Dan Szymborski: With the quarter pole in our review mirror, Dan takes us through the players whose ZiPS projections have most changed, for better and worse. On the 'best' front, ZiPS seems to be something of a believer in Trent Grisham's terrific start, and is also high on prospect George Lombard Jr. The Yankees have a rolling offense for now, and sure enough, don't have any names on the downgrade list.
