Rodon’s Return Could Be Game-Changer | New York Yankees News
Description
The Yankees are cruising at 54-42 heading into the All-Star break, just three games back in their division, but injuries—especially to their pitching staff—are a major concern. Clarke Schmidt, Max Fried, and Carlos Rodon are all sidelined, but there’s reason for optimism: Rodon, who went on the IL on July 3rd, is throwing well and is expected to return before the August 3rd trade deadline. Manager Aaron Boone confirmed Rodon will likely throw his first bullpen session during the break, a promising sign. When healthy, the Yankees’ rotation—featuring Gerrit Cole, Fried, and Rodon—could be one of the best in baseball. Rodon, despite his injury woes, is still putting up a 3.30 ERA and a 4-2 record in nine starts. With the team’s playoff push in full swing, getting key arms like Rodon back on track could be the difference-maker they need.
