Carrasco (2-2) came away with the loss against the Orioles on Wednesday, allowing four runs on eight hits while striking out five over 3.1 innings. He did not issue a walk.

EDGE Analysis

All four of the runs Carrasco yielded came in the second inning, three of which came on home runs by Ryan Mountcastle and Ramon Urias. Carrasco has given up four earned runs in three of his last five outings and is up to a 5.90 ERA and 1.48 WHIP over 29 innings. He's lined up to face the Padres at home next week.

Carrasco did not factor into the decision in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Blue Jays, allowing three hits and two walks while striking out two over five scoreless innings.

EDGE Analysis

Carrasco limited the Blue Jays to five baserunners and needed just 67 pitches (41 strikes) to get through five frames. He hasn't generated many strikeouts this season, but he has yielded one earned run or zero in two of his last three outings and has a 5.26 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 17:9 K:BB across 25.2 total innings this season. His next start is slated for next week against the Orioles at Camden Yards.

Carrasco did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 10-8 extra-inning loss to the Rays, allowing four runs on six hits and two walks with one strikeout over four innings.

EDGE Analysis

Carrasco was spotted a 6-1 lead but yielded three runs in the fourth inning and was pulled after 75 pitches. He threw just 38 of them for strikes while managing only two whiffs. On the season, the veteran owns an uninspiring 6.53 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 15:7 K:BB across 20.2 innings and lines up for a home matchup with the Blue Jays next weekend.

Carrasco (2-1) allowed a run on one hit and two walks over five innings Monday, striking out four and earning a win over the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

The lone blemish in Carrasco's outing was Bobby Witt's solo home run in the third inning. It was Carrasco's first start of the year with fewer than three runs allowed and he dropped his ERA to 5.94 through 16.2 frames. He threw 49 of 79 pitches fo strikes and generated 10 whiffs, including five with his changeup. Carrasco is projected for a road matchup against the Rays this weekend.

Carrasco (1-1) took the loss Tuesday against the Tigers, allowing four runs on six hits and a walk while striking out three in 4.1 innings.

EDGE Analysis

Most of the damage against Carrasco came in the fourth inning when the Yankees crushed three solo homers against him. He's struggled to a 7.71 ERA and 1.63 WHIP through two starts and one multi-inning relief appearance thus far and might be squeezed from the rotation soon, depending on the timeline of Clarke Schmidt (shoulder) and his return from a rehab assignment.

Carrasco (1-0) picked up the win after allowing three runs on five hits and two walks in 5.1 innings Thursday against the Diamondbacks. He struck out five.

EDGE Analysis

After giving up three runs in two innings of mop-up duty during Saturday's 20-9 rout of Milwaukee, Carrasco was sharper Thursday while being staked to a 4-0 lead in the first inning. Two Alek Thomas groundouts resulted in a pair of runs in the second and fourth innings, and Lourdes Gurriel doubled to plate another during Carrasco's two-run fourth frame. It's unclear how long the veteran right-hander will maintain a rotation spot, with Clarke Schmidt (shoulder) targeting a mid-April return, but Carrasco's next start is currently penciled in for early next week in Detroit.

The Yankees selected Carrasco's contract from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Thanks to a combination of his impressive spring (1.69 ERA, 0.94 WHIP) and an epidemic of injuries in New York's pitching staff, Carrasco will land a spot in the Yankees' Opening Day rotation after signing as a camp invitee in February. Although his Grapefruit League numbers were good, the 38-year-old still owns a 6.18 ERA and 1.54 WHIP in the regular season since 2023, so fantasy managers should approach Carrasco with caution. Gerrit Cole (elbow) was placed on the 60-day injured list in a corresponding move.

Carrasco is expected to be part of the Yankees' Opening Day roster, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Carrasco did a great job standing out this spring, turning in a 1.69 ERA while striking out 15 batters in 16 innings across five appearances. His performance combined with injuries to Gerrit Cole (elbow), Luis Gil (lat), JT Brubaker (ribs) and Clarke Schmidt (shoulder) has seemingly resulted in the 38-year-old Carrasco breaking camp with the big club. Whether his spring success translates into the regular season will likely determine if the right-hander remains in the majors once the Yankees' injured arms start to return.

Carrasco pitched five scoreless innings in a Grapefruit League game against Atlanta on Wednesday, allowing two hits and issuing one walk while striking out three batters.

EDGE Analysis

Carrasco allowed a single to the first batter he faced, then retired the next six hitters and ended up allowing just four baserunners in the outing. The veteran righty was efficient in needing just 54 pitches to get through five frames, and he lowered his spring ERA to 1.69. Carrasco also has a 0.94 WHIP and 15:7 K:BB over 16 innings during the exhibition slate, and he's likely to have earned a spot in New York's season-opening rotation due to his superb spring.

Carrasco is likely to open the season in the Yankees' rotation, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

In camp as a non-roster invitee, Carrasco has pitched well during Grapefruit League action, holding a 2.45 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 12:6 K:BB over 11 innings. Injuries to Gerrit Cole (elbow) and Luis Gil (lat) have opened up two spots in the Yankees' rotation. Marcus Stroman is expected to fill one of the spots, and it sounds like Carrasco might be favored over Will Warren to occupy the other.
