Yankees starter is erasing doubts and building All-Star buzz
Yankees starter is erasing doubts and building All-Star buzz originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Carlos Rodon Is Pitching Like an All-Star Again. And Took Notice The New York Yankees have spent the first half of 2025 juggling injuries, rehab assignments, and next-man-up pitching plans. But through it all, Carlos Rodon has been a rock of the rotation. Advertisement Now, the left-hander is getting national recognition to match his resurgence. included Rodon on its new list of players who could snap an All-Star drought this season. It would be his first Midsummer Classic nod since 2022. New York Yankees starting pitcher Carlos RodonBrad Penner-Imagn Images And his first as a Yankee. Rodon's performance this season makes a strong case. He owns a 2.87 ERA, a 3.27 FIP, and a 10.9 K/9 rate, all his best marks since arriving in the Bronx. More importantly, he's been dominant when the Yankees have needed him most. With Gerrit Cole shut down for the year after Tommy John surgery and the Yankees still waiting for Luis Gil to make his 2025 debut, Rodon has stepped up. Over his last 10 starts, he's posted a 1.90 ERA, settling into the kind of rhythm the Yankees hoped for when they handed him a six-year, $162 million deal ahead of the 2023 season. Advertisement His beginnings in the Bronx were a disaster Between injuries and inconsistency, Rodon never looked like himself. And he certainly did not look like a $162-million pitcher. Even early this year, there were questions about whether he'd fully recapture the form that made him an All-Star with the White Sox in 2021 and the Giants in 2022. Now, midway through June, those questions are getting quieter — and Rodon is pitching louder. If he keeps this up, Yankee fans might finally see Rodon walk into an All-Star clubhouse again — this time wearing New York on his chest.

This Date in Baseball - Alex Rodriguez ties Lou Gehrig's record by hitting his 23rd grand slam
June 12 1922 — Hub Pruett struck out Babe Ruth three consecutive times, and the St. Louis Browns beat the New York Yankees 7-1. 1928 — Lou Gehrig of the New York Yankees had two triples and two homers in a 15-7 victory over the Chicago White Sox. 1939 — The Baseball Hall of Fame was dedicated at Cooperstown, N.Y. 1954 — Milwaukee's Jim Wilson pitched the year's only no-hitter, blanking the Philadelphia Phillies 2-0. 1957 — Stan Musial of the St. Louis Cardinals broke the National League record for endurance when he played in his 823rd consecutive game. The previous mark was established in 1937 by Pirates first baseman Gus Suhr. 1959 — The San Francisco Giant's Mike McCormick tossed a 3-0, five-inning no-hitter against the Philadelphia Phillies. Richie Ashburn singled in the top of the sixth for the Phillies, but the hit didn't count because the game was stopped by rain. 1962 — In Milwaukee's 15-2 rout of Los Angeles at County Stadium, the Aaron brothers both homer in the same game with Tommie connecting in the bottom of the eighth after his older brother Hank had hit one out in the second. 1970 — Dock Ellis of the Pittsburgh Pirates hurled a 2-0 no-hitter in the first game of a doubleheader against the San Diego Padres. Ellis walked eight and hit a batter, and Willie Stargell hit two homers. 1981 — Thirteen games were canceled due to the players' strike. 1997 — After 126 years, baseball broke its tradition and played interleague games. The San Francisco beat the Texas Rangers 4-3. 1999 — Cal Ripken went 6-for-6, homering twice and driving in six runs as the Baltimore Orioles scored the most runs in franchise history with a 22-1 rout of the Atlanta Braves. 2006 — Jason Grimsley was suspended 50 games by Major League Baseball, less than a week after federal agents raided his home during an investigation into performance-enhancing drugs. 2007 — Justin Verlander pitched a no-hitter to lead the Detroit Tigers over the Milwaukee Brewers 4-0. Verlander struck out a career-high 12, walked four and benefited from several stellar defensive plays. 2009 — Chicago right fielder Milton Bradley had a bad day at Wrigley Field. Bradley lost Jason Kubel's pop-up in the sun for a single, couldn't catch Michael Cuddyer's RBI bloop double, made a baserunning blunder and, most egregiously, flipped the ball into the stands after catching Mauer's one-out sac fly. 2009 — New York Mets second baseman Luis Castillo dropped Alex Rodriguez's lazy popup with two outs in the ninth inning as two runs scored, helping the Yankees escape with a wild 9-8 victory over the Mets. 2010 — Daniel Nava hit the first pitch he saw as a big leaguer for a grand slam — only the second player to do it — leading the Boston Red Sox to a 10-2 rout of the Philadelphia Phillies. Nava connected on a fastball from Joe Blanton in the second inning. Kevin Kouzmanoff hit a slam on the first pitch he saw Sept. 2, 2006, for Cleveland against Texas. 2011 — Realignment is on the table again as Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Players Association are in discussions to renew the collective bargaining agreement, which expires on December 11th. One of the options being discussed would see one team moving from the National League to the American League to create two 15-team leagues, with the Houston Astros the likeliest candidate for a move. 2012 — Alex Rodriguez ties Lou Gehrig's record by hitting his 23rd career grand slam. 2016 — Sam Cohen put UC Santa Barbara into its first College World Series with a pinch-hit grand slam in the bottom of the ninth inning for a 4-3 victory over second-seeded Louisville 4-3 in the Super Regionals. 2017 — Royce Lewis, a high school shortstop from California, is selected first overall by the Minnesota Twins in the 2017 amateur draft. 2018 — Tigers 1B Miguel Cabrera suffers a season-ending injury when he tears a biceps tendon while swinging at pitch in the 3rd inning of a game against the Twins. He had already missed all but one game of May with a hamstring injury. _____

Yankees Trade Idea Brings In $5.9 Million, 2-Time All-Star Closer to End Bullpen Woes
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Even after losing two of three to their arch-rivals, the Boston Red Sox, over the weekend, the New York Yankees entered Tuesday's action with the second-best record in MLB, behind only the Detroit Tigers. But the Yankees have a problem at the back of their bullpen. First, offseason acquisition Devin Williams, at a price of $8.6 million for one year, was such a bust in April and most of May that he lost his closer's job. NEW YORK, NY - APRIL 12: Luke Weaver #30 of the New York Yankees looks on during the game against the San Francisco Giants at Yankee Stadium on April 12, 2025 in New York, New... NEW YORK, NY - APRIL 12: Luke Weaver #30 of the New York Yankees looks on during the game against the San Francisco Giants at Yankee Stadium on April 12, 2025 in New York, New York. More NewManager Aaron Boone then gave the assignment to Luke Weaver, a 10-year veteran pitching for his sixth different team. But Weaver also had the closer's job down the stretch last season, seeming to find his place in the role. With four saves in September, Weaver played a crucial role in the Yankees' run to the postseason. Taking over for Williams, he picked up where he left off, saving eight games in nine opportunities. But in a June 1 game against the Dodgers in Los Angeles, Weaver pulled a hamstring warming up and was given a trip to the injured list. What now? According to baseball insider Mark Feinsand, a two-time All-Star closer will likely be available on the trade market. Would the Yankees target him, as insurance against any further collapses by Williams or injury flare-up for Weaver? More MLB: Red Sox Outfielder Reveals Timeline To (Finally) Return From Injury That closer is 30-year-old righty David Bednar of the Pittsburgh Pirates, who saved a National League-leading 39 games in 2023, despite pitching for a team that finished the season 10 games under .500. "Bednar struggled so much to start the season that the Pirates demoted him to Triple-A on April 1, but the reliever has been formidable since returning to the Majors on April 19," Feinsand wrote. "Pittsburgh faces a double-digit deficit in both the NL Central and Wild Card races, and with Bednar earning $5.9 million this season with one more year of arbitration eligibility remaining, the time is right for the Pirates to trade him," the insider continued. The Pirates' closer has recorded eight saves this season, with a solid 3.74 ERA. Bednar's remaining full season of team control might make Pittsburgh's asking price somewhat higher than if he were simply a rental. On the other hand, his age and recent struggles mean he probably won't be worth a top prospect. The Yankees' No. 15 prospect, catcher and first baseman Rafael Flores, could headline a package to obtain Bednar. "Flores generates plus raw power and some of the best exit velocities among Yankees farmhands," according to an MLB Pipeline scouting report. "A right-handed hitter, he employs a pull-heavy approach designed to crush balls to left field, and he could tap into even more pop if he could make more consistent contact and lift more balls in the air." MLB Pipeline estimates Flores, now playing for the Yankees' Double-A affiliate, the Somerset Patriots, will be ready for the big leagues next season.
