<p>For the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees"><strong>New York Yankees</strong></a>, Thursday night in Houston was all about extinguishing fires and regaining momentum. After a tough 8-7 loss the previous day, the team rebounded emphatically, topping the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/houston-astros">Houston Astros</a></strong> 8-4 to take the series at Minute Maid Park and cap a 5-1 road trip. Manager <strong>Aaron Boone</strong> called the series “<em>took some months and years off me</em>,” a testament to the intensity of the matchup.</p>



<p>Left-hander <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carlos-rodon"><strong>Carlos Rodon</strong></a> led the way with his 16th win of the season, throwing 109 pitches over six innings, allowing just one earned run. His performance tied him with <strong>Milwaukee’s Freddy Peralta</strong> for the Major League lead. With the bullpen holding the fort in the seventh and ninth innings, New York showcased its depth and resilience.</p>



<p>While the scoreboard reflected a comfortable win, the game featured multiple tense moments, including a controversial call involving <strong>Ryan McMahon</strong> and a dramatic seventh inning where <strong>Fernando Cruz</strong> struck out <strong>Jose Altuve</strong> on a full-count splitter, energizing both the team and the fans.</p>



<h2>Can the Yankees maintain composure amid controversial calls?</h2>



<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-boone">Boone</a> praised Rodon’s composure in the face of adversity. <em>“I thought he threw great today. With all those righties, I thought he used his changeup so well, and he had a good fastball to go with it. I thought he was really good even deep into the outing. I thought he was almost getting sharper,”</em> Boone said according to <em><a href="https://www.mlb.com/news/ryan-mcmahon-trent-grisham-homer-as-yankees-take-series-from-astros" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">MLB.com</a></em>.</p>

<p>Rodon also reflected on the unusual ruling involving McMahon. <em>“I saw it. The ball didn’t hit the ground. I think he was making an attempt to throw the ball to second. To me, that’s a transfer,”</em> he said, emphasizing the unpredictable nature of the contest.</p>

<p>Manager <strong>Aaron Boone</strong> made his message clear on Friday night: the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees">New York Yankees</a></strong> are focused only on their own game, and the results are starting to show. Behind a strong outing from left-hander <strong>Carlos Rodon</strong>, the Yankees rolled to a 10-2 victory over the <strong>Chicago White Sox</strong>, marking their sixth straight win and tightening the <strong>American League East</strong> race to just three games behind the <strong>Toronto Blue Jays</strong>.</p>



<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-boone">Aaron Boone</a> praised his pitcher’s evolution, noting that the adjustments have made him more well-rounded and capable of sustaining success over time. The Yankees’ manager emphasized that the key to durability in Major League Baseball lies in the ability to refine one’s approach — something his starter has clearly embraced.</p>



<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carlos-rodon">Rodon</a> himself echoed that sentiment, noting the adjustments that have reshaped his approach on the mound. <em>“I’m more of a pitcher than a thrower, I would say,” </em>Rodon said, according to <em><a href="https://www.mlb.com/news/carlos-rodon-yankees-vs-white-sox-return-to-chicago" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">MLB.com</a>. “I rely on some weaker contact and let the defense work. The style is a little different. I’m still somewhat of a power pitcher, but I’m not just going to blow fastballs by you. I’m not stubborn.”</em></p>



<h2>Has Rodon become the pitcher the Yankees envisioned?</h2>



<p>Manager <strong>Aaron Boone</strong> believes so. <em>“He’s just a more complete pitcher,”</em> Boone said. <em>“If you’re going to have real longevity in this game, you’ve got to adjust and adapt. He’s done that.”</em></p>

</div></figure>



<h2>Can the Yankees’ offense stay this balanced?</h2>



<p>The bats have been just as influential in the win streak. <strong>Trent Grisham</strong> launched his fourth career grand slam—his second of the year—marking his 28th home run. It was his seventh long ball in 10 games, fueled, he said, by improved mental focus.</p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/yankees-lose-reliever-for-rest-of-season-after-flexor-strain-aaron-boone-confirms"></div>


<p>Boone didn’t hide his satisfaction. <em>“If you told me this spring Grisham would have a .354 OBP and 28 homers, I’d sign up in a heartbeat,”</em> he said.</p>



<h2>What comes next in the Division race?</h2>



<p>The Yankees have scored double-digit runs in three consecutive games, their longest such streak this season. Still, Boone kept perspective. <em>“I never take anyone lightly on the schedule—it’s the big leagues. If you don’t play well, you’ll get beat,”</em> he said.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_poll" id="68b2e1f09901c3ce28a47099" data-title="Can the Yankees sustain their offensive surge into September?" data-options="4"></div>


<p>With tougher opponents looming in September, the Yankees will need to prove this run is more than just a product of softer matchups. For Rodón, the return to his roots symbolized how far he has come. For the Yankees, it was a reminder that their best baseball may still be ahead.</p>

NY Yankees manager Boone sends clear message on Rodon's performance after sixth straight win

<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carlos-rodon">Carlos Rodón</a> has put himself ahead of <strong>Tarik Skubal</strong> and <strong>Zack Wheeler </strong>in a statistical category some may not consider important but is key to demonstrating how efficient the New York Yankees starter has been against batters.</p>



<p>Batting Average Against (BAA) is the key stat that Rodón is leading over Wheeler, Skubal, and other top pitchers. According to the latest MLB report, <strong>the Yankees pitcher has a .187 BAA</strong>, ranking number one on a list of five that also includes Nick Pivetta (.190), Nathan Eovaldi (.194), Wheeler (.197), and Skubal (.197).</p>



<p>While it’s not that Wheeler and Skubal have had a bad year, it’s more than obvious that Rodón’s recent dominance on the mound has been evident. The Phillies pitcher’s season, of course, is now over due to surgery.</p>



<h2>Rodón is Second-Best in the Rotation</h2>



<p>Currently, Rodón is the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees">Yankees</a>‘ second-best weapon in the rotation with <strong>a 3.24 ERA.</strong> He has provided the Bombers with high efficiency, and in August, he has earned two wins by decision. In his four starts this month, the Yankees have won three of the games.</p>



<div class="ck-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560"><p lang="es" dir="ltr">Carlos Rodón. Jump Throw. 🤯<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/RepBX?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#RepBX</a> <a href="https://t.co/Owza3PyP39">pic.twitter.com/Owza3PyP39</a></p>— New York Yankees (@Yankees) <a href="https://twitter.com/Yankees/status/1927590868719997329?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 28, 2025</a></blockquote></div> 



<p>With the same number of starts as Max Fried (26 games), Rodón has allowed <strong>only 103 hits and 61 runs while delivering 169 strikeouts. </strong>While some of his numbers are better than Fried’s, he is unfortunately the starter in the rotation who has given up the most home runs, with a total of 19.</p>



<p>For now, the Yankees have made the most of what they have in this year’s rotation, with Rodón being one of the key pieces. By performing better than other top pitchers, he can continue contributing to the team, and it is likely this will be his second-best season with the Yankees, or even surpass his performance last season, which ended with a <strong>16-9 record and a 3.96 ERA.</strong></p>

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carlos-rodon">Carlos Rodon</a></strong> wasn’t initially headed to Atlanta, but the Yankees left-hander is now officially part of the <strong>American League All-Star roster</strong> following a last-minute substitution. The move comes after teammate<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/max-fried">Max Fried</a></strong> was ruled out, paving the way for Rodon to represent the <strong>New York Yankees</strong> in the Midsummer Classic.</p>



<p>This marks Rodon’s <strong>third All-Star selection</strong> in the past five seasons, having previously earned the honor with the White Sox in 2021 and the Giants in 2022. His consistent performance in the Bronx this year made him a natural candidate for the late call.</p>



<p>With the 2024 All-Star Game set for Tuesday night, Rodon could take the mound on <strong>three days’ rest</strong> following his scheduled start against the Cubs on Friday. The timing adds an extra layer of intrigue to his return to the national spotlight.</p>



<h2>Rodon replaces Fried, continues strong season</h2>



<p>Carlos Rodon has quietly emerged as one of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees">Yankees</a>‘ most dependable arms this season. He owns a <strong>9-6 record with a 3.30 ERA</strong>, striking out 127 batters over 111.2 innings, and ranks fifth on the team in bWAR (2.2).</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="497" height="772" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20250711_BUS_438630_yankees_aa559420.webp&amp;width=497&amp;height=772" alt="" class="wp-image-438633" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/07/11150947/yankees.png 497w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/07/11150947/yankees-193x300.png 193w" sizes="(max-width: 497px) 100vw, 497px"></figure></figure>



<p>Fried, meanwhile, was removed from the AL roster due to injury, creating the opening for Rodon’s third All-Star appearance — and his first as a Yankee.</p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/aaron-judge-details-crucial-play-that-capped-yankees-historic-comeback-vs-mariners"></div>


<h2>Looking ahead to Atlanta</h2>



<p>The <strong>MLB All-Star Game</strong> will be played Tuesday at Truist Park in Atlanta, where Rodon could feature in relief for the American League. With his experience and momentum, he offers AL manager <strong>Bruce Bochy</strong> another high-level arm for late-game matchups.</p>

Rodon joins AL squad in surprise Yankees switch ahead of MLB All-Star Game

<p>It hasn’t been a smooth ride for <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carlos-rodon">Carlos Rodon</a></strong> since putting on the pinstripes, but his 2024 campaign tells a far different story. After a turbulent debut season in the Bronx, Rodon has become one of the most reliable arms in the <strong>New York Yankees</strong>’ rotation — and now, he’s finally ready to talk about the struggle that shaped him.</p>



<p>Rodón, who joined the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees">Yankees</a> </strong>with high expectations in 2023, saw his performance dip to career lows, drawing criticism and questions about his long-term impact. But in a recent appearance on <em>The Show</em> with Jon Heyman and Joel Sherman, the left-hander <strong>reflected candidly</strong> on that disappointing first year and how a personal milestone off the field helped bring clarity.</p>



<p><em>“<strong>That first year was rough, and we just had Silo, which was a blessing</strong>,”</em> Rodon said, referring to the birth of his son. <em>“So I think he kind of made it a little easier on us—than, for me at least. To come home and then not have to think about baseball and think about being a dad, which was nice.”</em></p>



<h2>A harsh debut in the Bronx</h2>



<p>Rodon’s 2023 numbers were a stark contrast to the ace the Yankees hoped they had acquired. He finished with a<strong> 6.85 ERA</strong>, the highest of his career with at least 12 starts, alongside just 64 strikeouts and a 3-8 record. Beyond the box score, he described long nights and solitary drives that weighed heavily on his psyche.</p>

<p><em>“<strong>Reflecting on that, it was rough—long drives home, a lot of time in my head thinking about, you know, what’s wrong? Why can’t I make this better?</strong>”</em> he admitted. The mental toll was real, but so was his determination to find a new path forward.</p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/tigers-kerry-carpenter-delivers-3-word-reaction-after-3-homer-explosion-vs-white-sox"></div>


<h2>A reinvented pitcher in 2024</h2>



<p>Fast forward to this season, and Rodon looks like a different pitcher — statistically and mentally. With a <strong>2.60 ERA, 90 strikeouts, and a 7-3 record</strong>, he’s finally delivering on the promise that came with his big free-agent contract. The shift, according to Rodon, came with his mindset and his arsenal.</p>



<p><em>“<strong>I wish I was better at the time, but I wasn’t,</strong>”</em> he said. <em>“And like I said, I think it was just part of to get me to where I am at this point. I had to evolve… if it was easy, I think in this moment, I’d still be throwing fastball, slider 50/50. So you wouldn’t have these extra pitches and being able to change the usage and become a more complete pitcher.”</em> <strong>Rodon’s evolution </strong>has not only made him a more balanced pitcher — it’s made him indispensable to a Yankees team with postseason aspirations.</p>



<h2>Rodon: Focused on the future</h2>



<p>With the trade deadline looming and the Yankees in the thick of the <strong>AL East</strong> race, Rodon’s resurgence could prove crucial. He’s not just pitching better — he’s thinking like a veteran, adjusting in real-time, and setting the tone for a team chasing its first title since 2009.</p>

<p>The Yankees will look to keep their momentum going as they begin a three-game set against the Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday. For Rodon, the road back wasn’t easy — but it’s made this stretch of dominance all the more meaningful.</p>

Carlos Rodon gets honest about rough first year with Yankees and his 2024 turnaround - Bolavip US

<p>The <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees">New York Yankees</a></strong> suffered a 4-3 defeat at the hands of the <strong>San Diego Padres</strong> on Monday night, but the story that emerged from the loss had little to do with the final score—and everything to do with leadership.</p>



<p>While <strong>Carlos Rodon</strong> delivered one of his most composed performances of the season—6 2/3 scoreless innings—the bullpen couldn’t seal the deal. In the eighth, reliever <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/devin-williams">Devin Williams</a></strong> surrendered the lead, giving up three runs on one hit and a pair of walks. Yet rather than expressing frustration, Rodón extended something far more valuable: empathy.</p>



<p>Few understand the weight of the Yankees’ pinstripes like <a href="https://bolavip.com/us/tema/carlos-rodon">Rodon</a>. The left-hander endured heavy scrutiny throughout his first two seasons in New York, often falling short of expectations. Now, with his form resurgent, Rodon sees a chance to use that journey to support others navigating the same turbulence. <em><strong>“I’ve been through it,”</strong></em> Rodón admitted postgame. <em>“I know what that feels like. It’s not easy. But we acquired him for a reason. He’s such a great pitcher.”</em></p>



<p>Rodon wasn’t simply trying to smooth over a loss. His words reflected lived experience—something Williams, newly demoted from the closer role, likely needed to hear. The numbers haven’t been kind to the two-time NL Reliever of the Year. <em>“<strong>He just needs to build that confidence, and he needs to know what kind of pitcher he is,”</strong></em> Rodón added. <em>“He’s so good. He’s tremendous. He has an unbelievable changeup.”</em></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20250506_BUS_391976_Carlos-Rodon-1024x576_d713c2c4.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-392072" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/05/06110225/Carlos-Rodon-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/05/06110225/Carlos-Rodon-300x169.jpg 300w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/05/06110225/Carlos-Rodon-768x432.jpg 768w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/05/06110225/Carlos-Rodon-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/05/06110225/Carlos-Rodon-740x416.jpg 740w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/05/06110225/Carlos-Rodon-490x275.jpg 490w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/05/06110225/Carlos-Rodon-250x140.jpg 250w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/05/06110225/Carlos-Rodon.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>&nbsp;Veteran pitcher Carlos Rodón #55 of the New York Yankees.

<h2>From Milwaukee calm to New York chaos</h2>



<p>Williams arrived from <strong>Milwaukee</strong>, where he flourished in a smaller market with less media glare. In the Bronx, however, every pitch is magnified. And Rodon knows how quickly public opinion can shift. <em>“Just go out there and pitch with some swagger,”</em> was his best advice. <em><strong>“They’ll boo you, sure, but they’ll love you when you do well too.”</strong></em></p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/aaron-boone-unveils-why-ny-yankees-top-prospect-george-lombard-jr-is-a-future-standout"></div>


<p>For Williams, the message landed. Though disappointed, the reliever remained resilient. <strong><em>“I am ready to go out there tomorrow,”</em> </strong>Williams said.</p>



<h2>A veteran voice when it matters most</h2>



<p>The loss might sting, but the moment revealed something critical for the Yankees: <strong>Rodon is emerging not only as a dependable arm</strong>—but as a veteran voice willing to stand up for his teammates in moments of adversity. As Yankees look to rebound, they’ll need both pitchers. </p>

<p>The expectation is high for the <strong>New York Yankees</strong> as they prepare for <strong>MLB</strong> Opening Day. With several injuries plaguing the roster, manager Aaron Boone will need to maximize the talent available from the 40-man roster to take on the Milwaukee Brewers in the season opener. This situation has Yankees fans concerned, especially with <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-judge" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Aaron Judge</a></strong> stepping into a leadership role on a team full of young players.</p>



<p>With the moves made during the offseason and the performance shown in spring training, the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Yankees</a></strong> front office is confident the team will meet its goals for the upcoming season. <strong>As a result, the Yankees have already named their starting pitcher for the season opener against the Brewers, according to <em>MLB.com</em>.</strong></p>



<p>Judge’s teammate, Carlos Rodon, <strong>will be entrusted with the responsibility of delivering the first pitch of the 2025 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MLB</a> season.</strong> Given the high expectations for the Yankees this year, Rodon could be a key factor in their pursuit of victory.</p>



<p>The last time Rodon started for the Yankees was in spring training last Friday against the Detroit Tigers. <strong>He delivered a 5.40 ERA and struck out 10 batters, helping the Yankees secure a 4-0 win</strong> at Publix Field at Joker Marchant Stadium.</p>

<h2>Rodon’s 2024 stats with the Yankees</h2>



<p>Two-time All-Star is set to begin his third season with the Yankees after a decade of MLB experience. Following a solid 2024 campaign, <strong>he’s eager to help the team as he takes the mound for the season opener against the Brewers.</strong> Rodon aims to demonstrate that his performance in 2024 is just the start of what he hopes will be a successful 2025 season.</p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/key-ny-yankees-teammate-of-aaron-judge-receives-disappointing-injury-update"></div>


<p>Rodón posted strong numbers last year, finishing the regular season with a 3.96 ERA in 32 starts. <strong>He boasted a 64% win-loss record (16-9) while logging 175 innings, allowing 157 hits, 81 runs, 31 home runs, and striking out 195 batters.</strong></p>



<p>In the postseason, Rodon made four starts, recording a 33% win-loss percentage (1-2). <strong>Over 17.2 innings, he gave up 21 hits, 11 runs, 5 home runs, and tallied 25 strikeouts.</strong></p>



<h2>Judge to lead Yankees’ Opening Day lineup</h2>



<p>While the full lineup remains a mystery, with only the starting pitcher confirmed for Opening Day, <strong>the Yankees are expected to feature many of their offseason acquisitions along with key young players</strong> who impressed during spring training in March.</p>



<p><strong>Projected Yankees lineup for Opening Day 2025:</strong></p>

<p>All things considered, it’s been a positive offseason for<strong> Brian Cashman and Hal Steinbrenner.</strong> However, the roster is still flawed, and they need to make more moves to put last season’s blunder behind them.</p>
<p>With that in mind, <strong>Jon Heyman of The New York </strong>Post reported that they’re all-in on trying to sign southpaw ace <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/MLB-Rumors-Yankees-target-Carlos-Rodon-has-set-his-asking-price-20221209-0017.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Carlos Rodon</a>,</strong> who’s coming off a stellar campaign with the <strong>San Francisco Giants.</strong></p>
<h2>MLB News: Yankees To Make A Big Push For Carlos Rodon</h2>
<p><em><strong>“The Yankees have opened talks with star left-hander Carlos Rodon, and a formal offer was expected to be delivered late Monday or possibly Tuesday for the team’s big outside free-agent target</strong></em><strong>,”</strong> wrote Heyman.</p>
<p><em>“The initial indication is that Rodon seeks<strong> seven-plus years at $200 million plus, </strong>and while the Yankees seem reluctant to go to that length, they also seem very serious and hopeful about this pursuit,” </em>Heyman added.</p>
<h2>Yankees Unlikely To Make A Run At Carlos Correa</h2>
<p>The Yankees were also reportedly looking to make a run at<strong> Carlos Correa</strong>. Nonetheless, Heyman reports that there are serious concerns about the <strong>former Astros’</strong>fit in their current lineup.</p>
<p><strong><em>“While there’s also been some chatter linking the Yankees and superstar free-agent shortstop Carlos Correa, it is clear that their main focus is on Rodon, who’s also received interest from the Giants, Cardinals and several other teams,”</em></strong> Heyman explained.</p>
<p><em><strong>“The Yankees do like Correa as a player, but they are having a hard time seeing a fit, either financially or on the field,</strong> as they have three shortstop candidates plus veteran third basemen D.J. LeMahieu and Josh Donaldson, who’s thought to be untradeable following a rough offensive season,”</em> added the report.</p>

<p></p>
<p>That should all but kill all rumors regarding <strong>a blockbuster trade for Fernando Tatis Jr. </strong>as well, as the Bronx Bombers were rumored to be in the mix for the out-of-grace young star. So, whether they’ll pursue another big name in the offseasonremains to be seen.</p>

<p>Notably, that’s not the only deadly blow the <em>Bronx Bombers </em>could give the Bay area team this offseason. Apparently, they’re keeping tabs on free agent <strong>Carlos Rodon</strong>, who opted out of his contract after one season with the Giants.</p>
<p>Even with Judge coming back<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/MLB-News-Aaron-Judge-and-the-hiighest-paid-MLB-players-20221207-0022.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">and his massive contract</a>,</strong> reports state that the Yankees can afford to fit the southpaw ace on their payroll. That’s assuming they’re <strong>willing to meet his terms and demands.</strong></p>
<h2>MLB News: Yankees Are Interested In Carlos Rodon</h2>
<p><strong>(via New York Post)</strong></p>
<p><em>“While the Yankees’ main priority remains superstar Aaron Judge, they remain in daily contact with Carlos Rodon’s camp, <strong>and preferred him as a rotation option all along to Justin Verlander or certainly Jacob deGrom, for two main reasons: 1) he’s younger, and 2) he’s a left-hander for Yankee Stadium.</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>Word is, the Yankees likely could still fit Rodon into their payroll if Judge returns</strong> — although their budget hasn’t been defined to the dollar, as of yet. And he’s the starter that has their attention. ‘He’s really good,’ manager Aaron Boone said Monday.”</em></p>
<p><span></span></p>

<div id="relatedNews-54">     </div>
<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<h2>Rodon Wants A Six-Year Deal</h2>
<p>So, if the Yankees want to land the southpaw, they’ll need to committo<strong> a six-year deal worth at least $180 million.</strong> That’s assuming his asking price didn’t go up after <strong>Jacob deGrom and Justin Verlander’s</strong> mega deals.</p>
<p><strong>(via MLB Trade Rumors)</strong></p>
<p><em><strong>“Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports that agent Scott Boras and Rodon have been seeking a six-year deal at an annual rate of $30MM or more.</strong> (Notably, that report pre-dates Verlander’s new agreement with the Mets.) Heyman suggests that the Yankees are the large-market team that is most focused on Rodon at present.”</em></p>
<p>It’s been way too long since the Yankees last won the World Series, and fans have lost patience already. So, <strong>Brian Cashman and Hal Steinbrenner </strong>better start emptying their pockets and picking up the phone.</p>

<h2>MLB Rumors: The Best Remaining Free Agents</h2>
<h3>3. Brandon Nimmo</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20221208_BUS_208338_brandon_nimmo.jpg_22993414_9fc3b9a7.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Brandon Nimmo – Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><span style="color: inherit;font-family: inherit;font-weight: bold">Brandon Nimmo</span>may not have the same upside as other players on this list, but he sure is one of the most productive and versatile guys any team could strive for, especially this deep into the offseason.</p>
<p>Nimmo is a left-handed threat, a solid lead-off hitter with a knack for getting on base, and still has some room for improvement. Once again, the only question mark for the <strong>New York Mets</strong> star will be his health.</p>
<p><span style="color: inherit;font-family: inherit;font-size: 24px;font-weight: bold">2. Carlos Correa</span></p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20221208_BUS_208338_carlos_correa.jpg_22993414_c7786477.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Carlos Correa – Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Injuries aside, <strong>Carlos Correa </strong>is a spectacular player. He can single-handedly turn a team around when healthy, being an offensive catalyst and perhaps the best defensive shortstop in the league.</p>
<p>So, following a one-year stint with the <strong>Minnesota Twins,</strong> chances are that the former <strong>Houston Astros</strong> star will look to find a permanent home this time around. He’s an elite playerand should be paid as such.</p>
<h3>1. Carlos Rodon</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20221208_BUS_208338_carlos_rodon_x1x.jpg_22993414_79722ee7.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Carlos Rodon – Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Injuries made plenty of teams ignore <strong>Carlos Rodon, </strong>but he’s now proven that he can be a workhorse and one of the most efficient and dominant hurlers in the Majors. With Verlander and deGrom out of the picture, he’s by far the best guy available.</p>
<p>Rodon’s breakout season wasn’t a fluke, so it was smart of him to include an opt-out clause in his deal with the<strong> San Francisco Giants.</strong> He’s now looking at a deal close to $150 million, and plenty of teams will be more than willing to meet that price.</p>

<p>Year after year, some of the<strong> best hurlers on Earth</strong> switch sides, either because they’re looking for a bigger role, a more lucrative payday, or a chance to win that highly-coveted Commissioner’s Trophy.</p>
<p>This offseason won’t be the exception to that rule, as we expect multiple stars to find new homes by the end of the winter. So, here, we’ll let you know about<strong> the top 3 best pitchers available in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/mlb-rumors-aaron-judge-jacob-degrom-and-superstar-who-could-join-new-teams-20221108-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">free agency.</a></strong></p>
<h2>MLB Rumors: The 3 Best Pitchers Available In Free Agency</h2>
<h3>3. Carlos Rodon</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20221118_BUS_205209_carlos_rodon.jpg_22993414_75108a1d.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Carlos Rodon – Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>While some thought his 2021 campaign with the <strong>Chicago White Sox </strong>was misleading, <strong>Carlos Rodon</strong> has once again proved to be an elite hurler in this league. He was the only bright spot for the <strong>San Francisco Giants</strong> this season.</p>
<p>The 30-year-old has strung back-to-back solid campaigns together and is now in line to get the <strong>biggest payday of his career.</strong> He’s poised, often in control, and still has plenty left in the tank, so we should be looking at a multi-year deal.</p>
<h3>2. Justin Verlander</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20221118_BUS_205209_justin_verlander.jpg_22993414_839e2b31.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Justin Verlander – Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Talking about guys who still have plenty left in the tank, <strong>Justin Verlander</strong> enters the offseason in a prime position to make even more money. Even at his age, he’s still one of the top 5 pitchers on Earth.</p>
<p>Verlander was even able to put his <strong>World Series </strong>woes behind him with his first career win in a WS last season. He had one of the best years of his career, even though he was coming off a major injury.</p>
<h3>1. Jacob deGrom</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20221118_BUS_205209_jacob_degrom_x1x.jpg_22993414_05fc8b78.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Jacob deGrom – Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>New York Mets</strong> fans will not bat an eye until<strong> Steve Cohen </strong>makes sure to bring <strong>Jacob deGrom</strong> back. He’s the best pitcher in the world when healthy, although he hasn’t been healthy as often as they’d like him to.</p>
<p>DeGrom is <strong>as dominant as he is spectacular.</strong> Even with the injury risk, he deserves to be the highest-paid starting pitcher on Earth, and multiple teams will make sure to make him an offer he cannot reject.</p>

<p>Most pitchers struggled in their first outing of the season due to the shortened <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/mlb-2022-top-5-projected-rotations-for-the-upcoming-regular-season-20220402-0023.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Spring Training.</strong></a> We can all remember <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/mlb-news-dave-roberts-guarantees-dodgers-will-win-world-series-20220325-0006.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dave Roberts</a> infamously pulling <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/clayton-kershaw-gets-real-on-his-near-perfect-game-20220414-0005.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Clayton Kershaw</a> out of a perfect game due to a strict pitch count.</strong></p>
<p>But now that all aces have seemingly gotten their legs back under them, we’ve seen some true gems as of late. Contrary to what <strong>Robert Manfred </strong>wants, we’ve witnessed several pitching duels and low-scoring affairs.</p>
<p>So, with most pitchers getting at least three starts so far this season, let’s take a look at the top two way-too-early candidates to win the<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/cy-young-award-history-records-and-winners-by-year-20220411-0012.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cy Young Award</a></strong>, both in the <strong>National and American League.</strong></p>
<h3>MLB News: Leading Candidates To Win Cy Young</h3>
<h3>National League</h3>
<h3>Max Scherzer</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="397" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:397" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20220428_BUS_189737_max_scherzer.jpg_631782975_283038ce.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=397" width="740" height="397"></figure><figcaption>    Max Scherzer- Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Death, taxes, and<strong> Max Scherzer</strong> being near the top of the Cy Young race. The ageless Mad Max continues to prove why the<strong> Mets</strong> signed him to such a massive deal, dominating out of the gate in his new home.</p>
<p>Thus far, the former Nationals ace has been nearly unhittable, sitting on a<strong> 3-0 record with a 1.80 ERA after four starts. </strong>He’s struck out 33 hitters across 25.0 frames, handing out just 8 walks to boast a WHIP of 0.760. He’s also leading MLB in hits per nine innings (4).</p>
<h3>Carlos Rodon</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="397" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:397" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20220428_BUS_189737_carlos_rodon.jpg_631782975_c3ba00eb.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=397" width="740" height="397"></figure><figcaption>    Carlos Rodon – Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Carlos Rodon</strong> has proven to be worth every penny since arriving in the Bay Area. The <strong>Giants</strong> were confident that he could fill in for <strong>Kevin Gausman</strong> and he’s been even better in this brief tenure at Oracle Park.</p>
<p>Coming off an All-Star season, Rodon has been even better this year, holding a perfect<strong> 3-0 record with a 1.17 ERA in 4 starts</strong>. He’s got a WHIP of 0.826 with 38 strikeouts in 23.0 IP and is leading MLB with a 0.95 FIP.</p>
<h2>American League</h2>
<h3>Joe Ryan</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">

<p>While the <strong>Minnesota Twins </strong>haven’t exactly been good this season, <strong>Joe Ryan</strong> has been one of the most impressive hurlers in all of baseball. Thus far, the 26-year-old has built on his strong Spring Training and proven to be worthy of a spot in the rotation.</p>
<p>Through his first four starts of the season, Ryan holds a <strong>3-1 record with a 1.17 ERA</strong>. He’s also logged 25 strikeouts across 23.0 IP and holds a WHIP of 0.696, the best in the Majors. He’s given up just 6 walks and 3 earned runs, two of them coming off homers.</p>
