The Yankees likely haven’t named a starting pitcher, and therefore bookmakers are holding their odds, because they will use their opener strategy again. NY seems to have decided that it doesn’t have 5 starting pitchers, so it’s going to go with a four-man rotation but give each pitcher a full four days of rest by going with the opener strategy once every five days.
