7 years agoRichard Justice of MLB.com reports that Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Carlos Rodon (shoulder) won’t be rushed back in 2018. Rodon underwent arthroscopic shoulder surgery in September, and the club is looking to get him healthy for the long term. The left-hander has seen injuries slow him the past few seasons. General manager Rick Hahn said, "I'm guessing it's going to be closer to June 1, but until he's actually throwing in games, it's still speculative," in regards to when Rodon will be back. Rodon has shown strong potential when healthy and racks up strikeouts, but for now he makes for a nice late-round pick that owners can stash and hope for the best with in 2018.--Daniel Burdeen - RotoBaller
