The Carlos Rodón Yankees Experience is already maddening and we’re not even all the way through year one. There’s been essentially a missed first half, a chronic back condition that might dog his entire six-year contract, a blown kiss to booing fans, and oh-so-many bad pitches out of the zone or leaving the yard in a mere six starts. Then just yesterday, Rodón was removed from yet another ineffective appearance with an apparent leg injury, and while he hoped to avoid returning to the IL, that dreaded acronym worked its way back into his life anyway.
