Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Monday that the blister issue Rodon dealt with during his World Series Game 2 start is "manageable" and is not expected to prevent him from making another start, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports. The blister might have affected Rodon's command against the Dodgers, particularly with his slider. However, it does not appear he's in danger of missing a start, which is tentatively slated for Friday in Game 6, if necessary. Rodon yielded three home runs and four runs in total in his Game 2 loss.

Rodon will start Saturday in Game 2 of the World Series against the Dodgers, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports. The southpaw was the obvious choice to follow Game 1 starter Gerrit Cole, and Rodon revealed Thursday that he's been told he will indeed take the ball in Game 2. In three starts so far this postseason, Rodon holds a 4.40 ERA and 22:1 K:BB over 14.1 frames. He will be opposed by Yoshinobu Yamamoto.

The lefty went through his fair share of ups and downs during the regular season, but he finished on an upswing in September, collecting a 2.20 ERA and 34:10 K:BB over 28.2 frames covering five starts.

Rodon allowed two runs on four hits and four walks over 5.1 innings in a no-decision Friday. He struck out five during the loss to Pittsburgh. Rodon worked through five scoreless frames before coughing up back-to-back solo homers to Nick Gonzales and Bryan Reynolds in the sixth inning. It was just the third time that Rodon walked four or more batters out of his 32 starts this season. On the bright side, he forced 17 whiffs, including eight with his fastball. Rodon threw at least five innings in each of his last seven starts, posting a 2.68 ERA during that span. He ends the 2024 regular season with a 3.96 ERA and a 195:57 K:BB through 175 frames.
