Povich was optioned in favor of Carson Ragsdale, signaling bullpen and depth management as Baltimore navigates the final games of the season.

Povich faced Rosario in late September as the Orioles attacked left-handed lineups; the matchup underscores how bullpen and starter splits affect platoon decisions and fantasy leverage for Yankees hitters.

Povich as the Orioles starter vs Yankees adds a masochist-friendly target. With a 5.05 ERA and 1.45 WHIP, he’s exploitable, yet his proximity to a playoff push adds a touch of risk to stack decisions.

Povich is on the Orioles’ left-handed staff, slated to start against New York; his role adds depth to Baltimore’s rotation in a series with Judge and the Yankees.

Povich’s PIT matchup positions him as a lower-depth option with a reasonable chance at a quality start if he keeps his changeup in the strike zone. The road to success hinges on control and avoiding big innings.
