Carlos Rodón’s second start after offseason elbow surgery was marked by frustration, as he committed a costly throwing error during the Yankees’ 6-3 loss to the Mets on May 16, 2026. His struggles with command resulted in multiple runs scored against him, despite a promising start where he retired eight of the first nine batters. Rodón acknowledged his inconsistency, notably failing to finish innings after securing two outs. While the Yankees currently have a strong rotation, Rodón’s performance raises concerns as they await the return of Gerrit Cole.
