Rodon will get the start against Cleveland in Game 1 of the American League Championship Series on Monday, Meredith Marakovits of YES Network reports.

Rodon's most recent start was in Game 2 of the ALDS on Oct. 7, when he took the loss against Kansas City. In that contest, the left-hander gave up four runs on seven hits and no walks while striking out seven batters over 3.2 innings. Rodon posted a 3.96 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 195:57 K:BB over 175 frames during the regular season and led New York with 16 victories. The Guardians haven't yet announced their starter for the first game of the ALCS.

Kim (shoulder) is hoping to be ready for game action by mid-April, Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Kim underwent shoulder surgery Friday after missing the last six weeks of the regular season and all of the postseason. He's entering free agency and a pivotal offseason, and while he should make a full recovery, he could miss up to the first month of the 2025 campaign.

Gonsolin (elbow) is likely to remain sidelined for the NLCS against the Mets, Alden Gonzalez of ESPN.com reports.

Gonsolin ramped up to three innings with Triple-A Oklahoma City before the minor-league campaign ended, though he has yet to be active in the postseason. Manager Dave Roberts didn't rule him out formally, but Landon Knack looks likely to be the primary choice for long relief for the Dodgers in the NLCS.

Kelly (shoulder) is unavailable for the NLCS against the Mets, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Kelly was expected to be out until the World Series with the shoulder issue, and that has now been confirmed. He last pitched Sept. 27 and suffered a setback in early October when he attempted to ramp up.

Graterol (shoulder) is unavailable for the NLCS against the Mets, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Graterol was placed on the injured list Sept. 26 and has apparently made little progress toward a return. Manager Dave Roberts didn't offer an opinion as to whether Graterol would be available if the Dodgers advance to the World Series.

Vesia (ribs) is unlikely to be available for the NLCS against the Mets, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Vesia left Game 5 of the NLDS with an injury that has since been clarified as a rib cage issue. Manager Dave Roberts added that he hopes to have Vesia back if the Dodgers advance to the World Series, but for now, the team will be without one of its best left-handed relievers.

Stone underwent right shoulder surgery Wednesday and is likely to miss the entire 2025 season, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Stone was initially sidelined with right shoulder inflammation in early September and was unable to return. He'll now likely be sidelined for all of 2025 after posting a promising 3.53 ERA and 1.21 WHIP with a 116:37 K:BB across 140.1 innings in 2024.

Cole will start Game 2 of the ALCS on Tuesday, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

The Yankees haven't announced a starter for Game 1 just yet, but Cole getting the nod to start Game 2 likely narrows the choices down to Carlos Rodon and Clarke Schmidt for Monday. Cole was dominant in his most recent outing, allowing just one run over seven innings en route to a win over the Royals on Thursday.

Flaherty will start Sunday in Game 1 of the NLCS against the Mets, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Flaherty was roughed up during his first outing of the postseason, surrendering four earned runs over 5.1 innings in a loss to San Diego, but he figures to have a good chance to bounce back Sunday after turning in a 3.17 ERA during the regular season.

Manaea will start Game 2 of the NLCS against the Dodgers on Monday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Manaea hasn't pitched since Tuesday, so it's hardly a surprise for him to start on what will be five days of rest. The 32-year-old southpaw has given up three earned runs through 12 innings during the postseason and will be following Kodai Senga in the rotation.
