Sources: Yankees fire pitching coach Larry Rothschild
The New York Yankees have fired pitching coach Larry Rothschild and will announce the move later Monday.
The move was first reported by the New York Post and confirmed by ESPN's Buster Olney.
Rothschild has served as the Yankees' pitching coach since 2011, when he replaced Dave Eiland, who was fired.
Despite a long list of injuries, the Yankees appeared in the ALCS this season, eventually losing to the Houston Astros. Statistically, the 2019 pitching staff wasn't as good as the 2018 version, however.
The 2019 Yankees finished 103-59 with a .636 winning percentage and a 4.31 team ERA, which ranked them 15th in the American League.
The 2018 team finished 100-62, but with a .378 ERA.
