Carlos Rodon Pushed Back To Friday
2 years agoThe San Francisco Giants have pushed left-hander Carlos Rodon's (finger) next start to Friday at the Arizona Diamondbacks to give his cracked fingernail/blister more time to heal this week. Rodon was originally scheduled to start on Tuesday at the Colorado Rockies. It's usually a good thing anytime a pitcher gets to avoid making a start at hitter-friendly Coors Field in Denver. The 29-year-old southpaw left his last start early against the Atlanta Braves after five innings pitched. Rodon made the All-Star team for the second straight season in his first year in San Francisco, and he's been excellent for fantasy managers with a 2.84 ERA (a league-leading 2.27 FIP), a 1.04 WHIP and a league-leading 220 strikeouts in 167 2/3 innings over his 29 starts.
