NEW YORK \u2014 The New York Yankees placed starting pitcher Carlos Rod\u00f3n on the 15-day injured list due to left elbow inflammation, nearly two months into his return from offseason elbow surgery.<\/p>

The Yankees made the move Friday, retroactive to Tuesday. On Sunday, Rod\u00f3n allowed two runs and one hit in five innings in a 5-4, 10-inning loss at Boston. The 33-year-old left-hander\u2019s average velocity on his fastball, changeup, slider and sinker against the Red Sox were slightly down when he threw 55 of 96 pitches for strikes.<\/p>\n

Putting Rod\u00f3n on the injured list was one of four moves the Yankees made before opening a three-game series with Minnesota. New York is mired in a seven-game skid<\/a> , it\u2019s worst since losing nine straight in Aug. 2023.<\/p>\n

The Yankees also activated third baseman Ryan McMahon and center fielder Trent Grisham from the IL, while optioning utilityman Oswaldo Cabrera to Triple-A Scranton\/Wilkes Barre<\/p>\n

Rod\u00f3n is 4-2 with a 3.30 ERA in nine starts since returning from the IL on May 10<\/a> . He struggled with command in his first three starts and is 4-0 with a 2.97 ERA in his last six outings.<\/p>\n

Rod\u00f3n had surgery Oct. 15 to remove loose bodies in his left elbow and shave a bone spur. He then had a setback in late March when he felt tightness in his right hamstring<\/a> while throwing at the Yankees\u2019 Florida complex.<\/p>\n

He was 18-9 with a 3.09 ERA last season despite an ailing arm. His four-seam fastball velocity, which averaged 95.3 mph in his first season with the Yankees, was 94.4 mph in the first half last year and dropped to 93.8 mph in the second half.<\/p>

Rod\u00f3n is 97-74 with a 3.72 ERA in 12 major league seasons, including 41-28 since signing a $162 million, six-year contract with the Yankees<\/a> in December 2023.<\/p>\n

New York has yet to have Rod\u00f3n, Gerrit Cole and Max Fried healthy at the same time. Cole missed last season following elbow reconstructive surgery and returned 10 days after Fried exited a start in Baltimore with a bone bruise in his left elbow.<\/p>\n

Fried faced hitters for the first time Tuesday<\/a> and is expected to do so again on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Grisham returned after missing 18 games with a strained right hamstring<\/a> sustained running to second in Toronto in June 12. He is hitting .232 with eight homers and 35 RBIs in 66 games. He hit safely in 10 straight games before getting hurt.<\/p>\n

McMahon was activated after missing 11 games with a throat infection. In his first full season with the Yankees after being acquired from Colorado in July, McMahon is hitting .210 with eight homers and 23 RBIs.<\/p>\n

Cabrera went hitless in nine at-bats in his return to the Yankees after fracturing his left ankle<\/a> on a slide at home in Seattle in May 2025.<\/p>
