Spring has sprung, and what better way to usher in a new season than with MLB opening weekend action on ESPN.
To kick off Opening Day, reigning American League MVP Aaron Judge and the defending AL champion New York Yankees welcome the Milwaukee Brewers to the Bronx. Left-hander Carlos Rodón, who recorded career highs in wins (16) and starts (32) last season, steps in as the Yankees' opening day starter after Gerrit Cole underwent season-ending Tommy John surgery. Milwaukee will likely see a familiar face on the mound in former star closer Devin Williams, who was acquired via trade by New York in December.
