Carlos Rodon

Carlos Rodón delivered a strong performance in the Yankees' 9-4 win over the Astros on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

He pitched 6.1 innings, allowing two earned runs on seven hits, with no walks and seven strikeouts. This outing continues a solid season for Rodón, who now boasts a 3.14 ERA and a 1.23 WHIP through nine starts. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (9.0 K/9) while keeping the walks down (evidenced by a 3.07 strikeout-to-walk ratio) enhances his fantasy value, particularly in leagues that reward strikeouts and WHIP. Despite a somewhat elevated FIP (4.70), which suggests some potential regression, his performance against a strong Astros lineup should reassure fantasy managers of his reliability as a starting option.

Carlos Rodon had a rough outing allowing six earned runs, eight hits, no walks and six strikeouts in Thursday's 7-2 loss to the Orioles.

Fantasy Impact

He allowed six earned runs on eight hits while striking out six over four innings. This performance was a significant deviation from his solid season stats, which boasted a 3.19 ERA and a 1.25 WHIP before this game. The absence of walks in this outing does little to mitigate the damage done by the high hit and run totals. Fantasy managers should note that Rodon's ERA and WHIP will see a noticeable increase, and his FIP of 4.77 suggests that some regression might have been expected, though perhaps not to this extent. This game could be a blip on the radar, but it might also signal a need for cautious lineup decisions if his next few starts follow a similar pattern.

Carlos Rodon delivered a strong performance in the Yankees' 15-3 victory over the Brewers on Saturday.

Fantasy Impact

He allowed just one earned run on two hits and one walk while striking out eight over six innings. This outing continues a solid start to the season for Rodon, who now boasts a 2.48 ERA and a 1.19 WHIP through seven starts. Despite a somewhat modest strikeout rate of 8.3 K/9, his ability to limit runs and maintain effective control was on full display. Rodon's performance against a competitive Brewers lineup should reassure fantasy managers of his reliability as a starting option, especially considering his ability to navigate through games with minimal damage. His low BABIP of .253 suggests some luck, but his overall effectiveness is undeniable.

Carlos Rodon delivered a masterful performance, allowing just one hit and two walks while striking out four over seven innings in Monday's 2-0 loss to the Athletics.

Fantasy Impact

Despite his strong outing, the Yankees' offense couldn't capitalize, leaving Rodon with a no-decision. This game was a bright spot in what has been a somewhat erratic season for Rodon, as evidenced by his elevated 1.35 WHIP. However, his solid ERA of 2.70 suggests that he can be effective when on his game.

Carlos Rodon turned in a gem for the Yankees on Tuesday, pitching six scoreless innings while allowing just four hits and two walks with six strikeouts against the Marlins.

Fantasy Impact

This performance not only secured a 3-2 victory for the Yankees but also served to alleviate some concerns about Rodon. Prior to this outing, his 1.76 WHIP and 6.02 FIP were points of skepticism among fantasy managers despite a 2.79 ERA. His ability to navigate through a game without surrendering an earned run, coupled with a solid six strikeouts over six innings, suggests that Rodon may be finding his groove.
