Carlos Rodon (elbow) hopeful to throw full bullpen this week

Yankees pitcher Carlos Rodon, who has been sidelined with an elbow issue, expressed optimism about returning to the mound for a full bullpen session in the coming days.

Rodon, who has missed recent starts due to discomfort in his left elbow, provided an update on his recovery process. The left-hander indicated that he is making progress and hopes to increase his throwing activity soon.

Progress in Recovery

After experiencing soreness in his pitching arm, Rodon has been following a rehabilitation program designed to gradually build up his strength. He recently completed a light throwing session and reported feeling encouraged by the results.

“I felt good after tossing yesterday,” Rodon said. “The plan is to ramp things up and hopefully get through a full bullpen this week.”

Looking Ahead

The Yankees have not provided a definitive timeline for Rodon’s return to game action. However, the team remains hopeful that he will be able to rejoin the rotation soon if his recovery continues without setbacks.

Rodon signed a significant contract with the Yankees prior to the season and was expected to be a key part of the starting rotation. His absence has been felt, but the club is encouraged by his recent progress.

Next Steps

• Continue following the prescribed rehab program
• Increase throwing intensity during bullpen sessions
• Monitor for any recurring discomfort or setbacks
• Await clearance from medical staff before returning to games
