2024 Fantasy Outlook
Year 1 of Rodon's six-year, $162 million pact with the Yankees was a disaster, as he missed a large portion of the season due to injury and struggled to a 6.85 ERA in his 64.1 innings on the mound. He suffered a forearm strain in spring training before later dealing with back and hamstring injuries. The back remains a concern moving forward after Rodon revealed in May that it's a chronic issue. Of course he's also battled a myriad of elbow and shoulder trouble in his career, so the lefty has to be considered a giant health risk. He was trending in a positive direction in 2021-22 -- he ranked second among pitchers in fWAR across those two seasons behind only Gerrit Cole and Zack Wheeler -- and his breaking stuff was still effective last season. Pitchers don't tend to get healthier in their 30s, but Rodon should be in the Yankees' rotation when available and the results should be better on a per-start basis. Read Past Outlooks
Struggles in Baltimore
Rodon (2-2) took the loss Thursday against the Orioles, allowing seven runs (six earned) on eight hits over four innings. He struck out six.
ANALYSIS
After shutting out Baltimore through the first two innings, Rodon allowed three solo home runs between the third and fourth innings before the O's put up a four spot in the fifth, forcing the Yankees to turn to the bullpen. It's a deflating effort from Rodon, who'd allowed just one run over 13 innings in his previous two starts. His ERA is up to 3.68 on the season with a 1.28 WHIP and 36:14 K:BB in seven starts. Rodon will look to bounce back in his next outing, currently scheduled for next week against the Astros.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
New pitch making impact
Rodon developed a cutter during the offseason and is utilizing it at a 13.8 percent clip through six starts, reports Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News.
ANALYSIS
Modern pitch tracking allowed the left-hander to quickly develop and refine the pitch, which he's using as a third offering behind his four-seamer and slider. Rodon has heavily relied on those two main pitches over the past few years, with his changeup and curveball combining for under 15 percent usage since 2021. The early results in 2024 are promising with a 2.48 ERA and 1.19 WHIP across 32.2 innings.

The White Sox declined to extend Rodon the qualifying offer last winter and that decision backfired in a big way as the lefty was a top-10 starter in baseball by most measures. Rodon's 2.25 FIP with San Francisco last season was in fact the best among qualified starters while his 26.1 K-BB% ranked third. He established a new career high with 178 innings -- a 45.1-inning increase over 2021. Now a two-time All-Star, Rodon's stuff is as good as ever despite the injuries earlier in his career. Corbin Burnes and Zack Wheeler are the only pitchers to have racked up more fWAR than Rodon over the past two seasons, and he'll now work atop the Yankees' rotation alongside Gerrit Cole after inking a six-year, $162 million contract with New York.
