New Yankees Jake Bird and David Bednar have nightmarish debuts
Access the Yankees beat like never before Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Greg Joyce about the inside buzz on the Yankees. Try it free MIAMI — Jake Bird and David Bednar ran into each other in the Denver airport around midnight Thursday and boarded a plane bound for Miami to join the Yankees, who had acquired them a few hours earlier at the trade deadline. At the time, those may have felt like two tickets to paradise. Their trip covered about 1,700 air miles, but more than that, it delivered them from last place to the world's most famous baseball team, a pennant race and a chance to win a championship in a few months. It didn't take long, however, for their joint journey to take a hellish turn. In their Yankees debuts, the relievers were among the many culprits in a mind-numbing 13-12 loss to the Marlins at loanDepot park. Bird was the first of the bullpen arrivals to make it to the mound. He entered to begin the bottom of the seventh with the Yankees holding a seemingly comfortable 9-4 lead and gave up a single off the right field wall to Agustín Ramírez. After Bird struck out Heriberto Hernandez, Otto Lopez lined a single to left and took second as the throw went in toward third. With Bednar warming, Bird walked Liam Hicks to load the bases. That brought a visit from pitching coach Matt Blake. Manager Aaron Boone was asked if he considered bringing in Bednar at that point to face Kyle Stowers, given Bednar's success this season against lefty hitters. David Bednar gives up a game-tying solo homer to Javier Samoja in the seventh inning of the Yankees' 13-12, 10-innning loss to the Marlins on Aug. 1, 2025. @Marlins / X 'A little bit, but then I'm really short getting to the end [of the game],' said Boone, who revealed Tim Hill, Luke Weaver and closer Devin Williams were unavailable due to recent usage. 'And we like Bird against lefties, too.' Stowers sliced a deep fly to left field that kept carrying, over the head of Jasson Domínguez and then over the wall. CHECK OUT THE LATEST MLB STANDINGS AND YANKEES STATS 'Just not executing the pitches to my ability,' Bird said. ' I need to be better there, and I will be better.' The 29-year-old Bird, who was 4-1 for a Rockies team that was 28-80, couldn't quite explain why things went wrong. Jake Bird looks on dejectedly after giving up a grand slam homer to Kyle Stowers in the seventh inning of the Yankees' loss to the Marlins. @Marlins / X 'I just think it's one of those days where you just need to have a little extra focus, a little extra intent. You don't want those days to happen, but they do on occasion, and I just need to look back at it, kinda learn from it and be better.' The Yankees still held a 9-8 lead when Bednar came on. This was many innings too early for a save situation, but the former Pirate has been impeccable holding leads this season, going 17-for-17 in save chances.

That was followed by a double by Jakob Marsee, an infield single by Xavier Edwards and a go-ahead single by Ramírez. 'Definitely not an ideal start by any means,' said Bednar, who was encouraged by the scoreless eighth inning he pitched that gave the Yankees a chance to take another short-lived lead. 'But the guys picked me up and I was able to get a zero in that second inning [of work]. That's just part of being a reliever. Sometimes stuff like that happens. It's all about how you respond and bounce back.'

NYY @ MIA: Carlos Rodón vs. Janson Junk
Carlos Rodón hasn't had the easiest of schedules across the last month-plus. The Yankees' southpaw probably welcomes the opportunity to face a Miami Marlins team that, outside the lefty-hitting Kyle Stowers, doesn't carry the biggest of threats to him. At the same time, one shouldn't overlook Miami, whose 52-55 record represents a pleasant surprise in the National League, currently well ahead of the more talented yet underwhelming Atlanta Braves. To contextualize Rodón's run of powerful opponents, the last time he faced a team that currently wouldn't be in the postseason was when he tossed six scoreless innings against the Reds at Great American Ballpark. Between the difficulty of pitching in that stadium and the upward trajectory of a Reds club currently four games over .500, that was certainly no picnic either. All the new acquisitions are in the house, and having not pitched yesterday, there is an excellent chance that at least a couple of them will take the mound in relief tonight. David Bednar, Camilo Doval, and Jake Bird are all on the active roster and ready to go down in Miami. To clear space on the active roster for the newcomers, Ian Hamilton and Yerry De los Santos were both optioned to Triple-A, and veteran Marcus Stroman was released (with a roster move pending for Luis Gil's return to the rotation in Stroman's place on Sunday). Speaking of recent acquisitions, José Caballero won't be starting against the right-hander Janson Junk, but he's also likely to come into this game at some point, acquired primarily for his skill on the basepaths. The former Ray leads the American League in stolen bases with 34. Oswald Peraza was traded to the Angels to make room on the roster for Caballero. Following a day off against Ryan Pepiot and the Rays, center fielder Trent Grisham returns to the leadoff spot. Grisham will be replacing Ben Rice, who'll be sitting this one out, with Austin Wells back in the catcher role and Paul Goldschmidt staying on as the first baseman. Amed Rosario and Austin Slater will both be available off the bench should a lefty enter the game for Miami.

Yankees' Carlos Rodon's outing undone by control issues
Access the Yankees beat like never before Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Greg Joyce about the inside buzz on the Yankees. Try it free MIAMI — Carlos Rodón's smooth sailing turned into a bruise cruise. The lefty's squandering of most of a six-run lead was not the biggest Yankees pitching story in Friday night's 13-12 loss to the Marlins. Advertisement That distinction belonged to newly acquired reliever Camilo Doval, acquired from the Giants at the trade deadline, who flushed a 12-10 lead in the ninth inning. A close second goes to two other newcomers, Jake Bird and David Bednar, who combined to give up six runs in the seventh inning to turn a 9-3 Yankees lead into a 10-9 Miami advantage. But it was Rodón's collapse that started the ugly trifecta. 'I had a good little run going and then I got real inconsistent, spraying balls,' Rodón said. 'Just not good enough. Five walks, 107 pitches to get 13 outs is pretty unacceptable.' Advertisement Yankees starting pitcher Carlos Rodon returns to the dugout against the Marlins during the third inning Friday night in Miami. Imagn Images The Yankees' 6-0 lead was built on the strength of a three-run homer by Giancarlo Stanton and a two-RBI single by Cody Bellinger. In the bottom of the fifth, a leadoff walk followed by the two-run homer Rodón yielded to Javier Sanoja may have seemed harmless enough at the time. Two strikeouts and two walks later, after his 107th pitch, Rodón was lifted in favor of Jonathan Loáisiga. Advertisement The reliever promptly hit Otto Lopez with a pitch to load the bases before serving up a two-run single to pinch-hitter Liam Hicks to make it 6-4. 'Rodo was kind of cruising early on there,' Aaron Boone said. 'He just had trouble with the strike zone those last two innings and just got up to a point where I had to go get him. 'Not sure [why],' the manager continued. 'He wasn't off a lot, I didn't feel like. He was just missing on some pitches. Missing on some 3-2 counts. I thought in the early innings he was pretty sharp and I thought stuff was OK, but he just lost the strike zone a little bit.'

In June, it was 3.71 in six outings. In July, his six starts produced a 4.24 ERA. And Friday night was an even worse beginning to August. A day earlier, Marcus Stroman was handed a 7-0 lead against the Rays at Yankee Stadium. He gave up four runs in the fourth, left after five and was released by the Yankees on Friday.
