Carlos Rodón: Everything you need to know

Rodon (0-1) allowed three runs (two earned) on three hits and three walks while striking out six over 3.2 innings to take the loss Saturday versus the Mets. Rodon threw 55 of 88 pitches for strikes in his second big-league start this season following an offseason elbow surgery. The southpaw has now given up six runs (five earned) with a 10:8 K:BB through eight innings over his two starts. His pitch count Saturday suggests he's pretty close to fully stretched out, so he'll just need to work on fine-tuning his control and efficiency moving forward. Rodon's next start is projected to be at home versus the Blue Jays.

Rodon didn't factor into the decision Sunday against the Brewers, allowing three runs on two hits and five walks in 4.1 innings. He struck out four. Making his season debut, Rodon showed signs of rust following three minor-league rehab appearances. The 33-year-old southpaw tossed just 42 of his 78 pitches for strikes, walking at least five for the 18th time in his career. Rodon will be looking to sharpen his control as he becomes further removed from offseason elbow surgery, and he's set for a favorable matchup against a banged-up Mets lineup next weekend.

The Yankees reinstated Rodon (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to start Sunday's game against the Brewers. The veteran left-hander opened the season on the shelf while finishing up his rehab from offseason elbow surgery, but he's ready to step into New York's rotation Sunday in Milwaukee. Rodon made three minor-league rehab appearances and built up to 6.1 innings and 83 pitches during his final outing with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, so any workload restrictions should be minimal in his season debut.
