The Yankees have started the season impressively at 8-2 with three series wins, compensating for the absence of Gerrit Cole. On the other end, the struggling Miami Marlins have seen their playoff chances drop drastically from preseason predictions.
The upcoming series between the Yankees and Marlins is termed a trap for the former, cautioning against complacency despite facing a struggling Marlins team. It emphasizes the unpredictability of baseball where any team can beat another on any given day.
The pitching matchup in the series highlights Nestor Cortes vs. Jesús Luzardo with contrasting performances. Luzardo, though strong in strikeouts, struggles with walks and barrel rates. Cortes, despite early struggles in his starts, shows potential with a significantly lower FIP compared to his ERA.
