2026 Fantasy Baseball Player Profile
Rodón delivered the ace-caliber season Yankees fans had been waiting for. He stayed fully healthy, making 33 starts and crossing the 200-strikeout plateau for the first time in pinstripes. His fastball velocity sat consistently at 96-97 mph, and his slider induced a 38% whiff rate.
2026 Outlook: Rodón has re-established himself as a top-tier fantasy starter. His 1.05 WHIP was a career-best, driven by significantly improved command against right-handed hitters. The key to his resurgence was a newfound reliance on his changeup to keep hitters off his fastball. As long as his back holds up, he offers top-10 SP upside, but his aggressive delivery always carries a lingering injury "tax" on draft day.
