Camilo Doval has posted a 5.47 ERA over 29 appearances and 24.2 innings this season for the New York Yankees. Initially the primary setup man, Doval's role has fluctuated due to performance issues and he has faced both high-leverage and lower-leverage situations. Opponents are hitting.260 against him, with an alarming 20% of his fly balls resulting in home runs. His slider has been particularly ineffective, contributing to his struggles on the mound. The Yankees will likely assess his performance as they navigate the remainder of the season.
