Yankees' Carlos Rodon: Goes on IL
The Yankees placed Rodon (forearm) on the 15-day injured list Thursday.
Though he'll open his tenure with the Yankees on the shelf with a left forearm strain, Rodon is already starting to ramp up again. He most recently completed a 30-pitch bullpen session Monday, and he could be cleared to resume facing hitters as soon as next week once he gets another side session or two under his belt. Rodon is still likely to require multiple rehab starts or simulated games to get fully stretched out for starting duties, so he shouldn't be expected to enter the Yankees rotation until late April at the soonest.

Yankees' Carlos Rodon: Ups intensity of side session
Rodon (forearm) completed a 30-pitch bullpen session Monday and was encouraged by how he felt afterward, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Following a two-week shutdown period, Rodon resumed mound work last Thursday, tossing a 15-pitch side session. He doubled up that pitch count Monday and is expected to throw off a mound once or twice more before advancing to facing hitters. While he continues to work through a left forearm strain, Rodon is expected to be on a build-up program that lasts around a month, so fantasy managers who are stashing him early on during the season shouldn't bank on him being ready to debut until late April in a best-case scenario.

Yankees' Carlos Rodon: Will be month away after live BP
Rodon (forearm) will be about a month away from joining the Yankees' rotation once he throws a live batting practice session, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.
Rodon threw a bullpen session Thursday and will toss 2-3 more before progressing to live batting practice. That would seem to leave him at least a week away from live BP, making a return before the end of April unlikely. It's a rough timetable for the time being, but Rodon does seem to be recovering well from his minor forearm strain.

Yankees' Carlos Rodon: Throws 15-pitch bullpen session
Rodon (forearm) threw a 15-pitch, all-fastball bullpen session Thursday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
It was his first time on the bump since he went down with a left forearm strain in early March. Rodon is slated to play catch Friday and throw another bullpen session in a few days, mixing in some breaking balls that time. The southpaw is expected to need 2--to-4 bullpen sessions and a couple live batting practice sessions before being cleared for a rehab assignment.

Yankees' Carlos Rodon: Throwing bullpen session Thursday
Rodon (forearm) will throw a bullpen session Thursday, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.
It will be his first time throwing off a mound since he was diagnosed with a forearm muscle strain back on March 9. Rodon is expected to throw at least two bullpen sessions before progressing to a couple live batting practice sessions and then a rehab assignment. That would seem to rule him out until at least late April, although a clearer timetable should be available as he continues his progression.

Yankees' Carlos Rodon: Feeling good after throwing
Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters Saturday that Rodon (forearm) is feeling good after throwing, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Rodon was able to throw Friday, and he continues to make strong progress from the forearm muscle strain he was diagnosed with March 9. The left-hander is still a lock to begin the 2023 campaign on the injured list, but there's a good chance he'll only miss two-to-three starts, which would be a major win for fantasy players and for a Yankees team that has dealt with significant injury concerns during the Grapefruit League season.

Yankees' Carlos Rodon: May miss just 2-to-3 starts
Rodon's rehab from a forearm muscle strain is going well, and he could miss just two or three starts if he doesn't have any setbacks once he resumes throwing, Randy Miller of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
Rodon underwent an MRI last week, which revealed that he's dealing with a mild muscle strain and that the UCL in his left arm is intact. Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that the veteran hurler could begin a throwing program "hopefully soon," indicating that Rodon has reached "a point that he needed to get to from a range of motion standpoint." Boone added that he's optimistic about the injury and its long-term implications, which should alleviate the fears of Yankees fans (and managers who have drafted Rodon in fantasy) about the forearm strain being a devastating issue. In fact, if all goes well moving forward, Rodon could make his regular-season pitching debut sometime around mid-April.
