Carlos Rodón is lined up to make his season and Yankees debut Friday against the Cubs, after completing his third rehab start on Saturday, manager Aaron Boone told reporters.
Rodón signed a six-year, $162 million contract with New York in the offseason, but he has yet to appear in a game this season due to injuries. Rodón first endured a forearm strain in spring training. Then he dealt with back issues that delayed his recovery.
The left-hander finally got into rehab games last month, and he appeared in three games to prepare for his Yankees debut.
