Rodon (elbow) allowed one earned run on five hits and no walks while striking out eight batters over 5.1 innings in a rehab start Thursday with Double-A Somerset.
Rodon was dominant in the second outing of his rehab assignment, spotting 51 of his 75 total pitches for strikes. The southpaw was able to build off the 4.1 scoreless innings he threw Friday with High-A Hudson Valley. Rodon is on the precipice of making his 2026 debut with Yankees after opening the season on the 15-day injured list while recovering from left elbow surgery that he underwent in October. He'll likely wrap his rehab assignment with one more start next Tuesday or Wednesday.
