The New York Yankees continue to get struck with injuries and are now missing two-fifths of their planned Opening Day starting rotation.
The Bombers, including Rodon, do not seem too worried about the injury, though. Rather, they just want to make sure Rodon can be a full-go when the Yanks need him most.."But am I performing at my best and how long am I going to last throughout the season if I continue down this road?
"I'm not here to pitch until the All-Star break. I’m here to pitch well into October. If this was down the stretch, yeah, I would be going for sure. If it's Oct. 5 or the ALDS, I'm taking the ball." General manager Brian Cashman said Rodon could return in April"in a perfect world" – he will be shut down for at least the next seven days.
