Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez: Awarded another start
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that Rodriguez will make his next start Monday against the Angels in Anaheim, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.
Summoned from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre last week to fill the vacant fifth spot in the rotation, Rodriguez came through with his best performance to date through his first five big-league starts. The 23-year-old took a no-decision in Wednesday's 9-3 win over the Astros, yielding three runs on three hits and two walks while striking out six over six innings. Though Max Fried returned from the injured list Saturday to give the Yankees five healthy starters, a doubleheader that day created a stretch of six games in five days, so Rodriguez will stick around with the big club as a temporary sixth starter. The Yankees are likely to option Rodriguez to Triple-A or shift him to the bullpen following his start Monday.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez: Fans career-high six in quality start
Rodriguez took a no-decision against the Astros on Wednesday, allowing three runs on two hits and two walks in six innings. He struck out six.
It was arguably a career-best start for Rodriguez, who fanned a career-high six Wednesday. It was also his first quality start of the year and the first time he completed at least five frames though five MLB starts. Rodriguez tends to operate on a spot-start basis for the Yankees, but a doubleheader Saturday could allow him to get another turn through the rotation. For now, he's tentatively set to bring a 4.70 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 16:13 K:BB over 23 major-league innings to Anaheim against the lowly Angels.

Rodriguez will start Wednesday's game against the Astros, and if he performs well, he could receive at least one additional start with the big club. The right-hander has collected a 4.76 ERA and 10:11 K:BB over 17 innings in his first four starts with the Bronx Bombers.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez: Confirmed as Wednesday's starter
Rodriguez will be recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to start Wednesday's game against the Astros, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Rodriguez will be making his fifth big-league start after logging a 4.76 ERA and 10:11 K:BB over 17 innings in his first four turns. The rookie right-hander has been much better at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre with a 2.59 ERA and 99:46 K:BB over 97.1 frames. Rodriguez could be given at least one additional start for the Yankees beyond Wednesday.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez: Likely to start Wednesday's game
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that there's a good chance Rodriguez will start Wednesday's game against the Astros, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Boone will wait for the conclusion of Tuesday's contest before officially deciding who will take the ball Wednesday. The Yankees have a doubleheader Saturday and won't have an off day until Sept. 3, so Rodriguez could make a couple starts with the big club. He's logged a 4.76 ERA and 10:11 K:BB in 17 innings covering four starts in the majors this season, and the rookie holds a 2.59 ERA and 99:46 K:BB over 97.1 innings this year with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez: Sent back to Triple-A
The Yankees optioned Rodriguez to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Monday.
Called up ahead of the second game of Sunday's doubleheader with the Dodgers to serve as the Yankees' 27th man in the twin bill, Rodriguez wound up going unused in New York's 2-1 win in the nightcap. The 22-year-old righty will slot back into the rotation at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre during the upcoming week after compiling a 2.85 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 67:34 K:BB across 66.1 innings over his 13 starts at Triple-A prior to the All-Star break.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez: Called up, available in relief
The Yankees recalled Rodriguez from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre ahead of the second game of Sunday's doubleheader versus the Dodgers.
Appointed as the Yankees' 27th man for the twin bill, Rodriguez appears set to make his first appearance as a reliever after he worked as a starter in his prior four big-league outings. Lefty Ryan Yarbrough is opening the game for the Yankees, but he hasn't worked more than three innings in any appearance this season and will likely be in line for an abbreviated start before the Yankees turn the game over to Rodriguez and their other relief arms. Over his first 17 big-league innings, Rodriguez has pitched to a 4.76 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and 10:11 K:BB.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez: Potentially starting Sunday
Manager Aaron Boone said Rodriguez will be called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to serve as the Yankees' 27th man for Sunday's doubleheader against the Dodgers and could "potentially" start Game 2, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
With the Yankees deciding to push Ryan Weathers back a day in the schedule to start Monday's series opener versus the Pirates, Rodriguez looks poised to temporarily step into the big-league rotation as a starter or bulk reliever. The 22-year-old has started in each of his prior four appearances with the Yankees, recording a 4.76 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and 10:11 K:BB in 17 innings.

The Yankees optioned Rodriguez to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre following Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Reds.
Rodriguez was called up to make a spot start Sunday, and he was handed his second loss of the season after tossing four innings and allowing three runs on four hits and two walks while striking out four. The 22-year-old will head back to the minors while the Yankees scale back to a five-man rotation during the upcoming week.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez: Recalled ahead of start
The Yankees recalled Rodriguez from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre ahead of his scheduled start Sunday against the Reds in New York.
Rodriguez is expected to make just one start for the big club before heading back to Triple-A, as manager Aaron Boone said Saturday that he simply wanted to build in an extra day of rest for the other members of the rotation. The 22-year-old righty will be making his fourth appearance of the season for New York after turning in a 4.15 ERA, 1.85 WHIP and 6:9 K:BB in 13 innings over his first three big-league starts.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez: Starting Sunday
The Yankees will recall Rodriguez from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to start Sunday's game against the Reds at Yankee Stadium, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
In an effort to give their starters some extra rest, the Yankees will bring up Rodriguez for a spot start Sunday. The 22-year-old righty has already started three games for the Yankees this season and owns a 4.15 ERA and 1.85 WHIP through 13 innings. He'll be welcomed back to the majors by a Reds offense that has put up a .707 OPS across its last 10 games.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez: Optioned after spot start
The Yankees optioned Rodriguez to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Monday.
Rodriguez was solid in a spot start Sunday versus the Mets, yielding one run on five hits and one walk over 4.1 innings. He had seemed in line to make one more start for the Yankees before Gerrit Cole (elbow) returns, but instead Rodriguez will rejoin the rotation at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez: Serviceable in no-decision
Rodriguez didn't factor into the decision Sunday against the Mets, allowing one run on five hits and one walk in 4.1 innings. He struck out one.
Recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre for a spot start, Rodriguez gave the Yankees 4.1 quality frames Sunday. The 22-year-old right-hander has not yet completed five innings in any of his first three major-league starts, but he's at least managed to keep the ball in the yard despite posting a troublesome 4.15 ERA, 1.85 WHIP and 6:9 K:BB over 13 innings. Rodriguez is next tentatively slated to take the hill against the division-rival Rays, but the expectation is that Gerrit Cole (elbow) will retake his place in New York's rotation after making one more rehab appearance.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez: Slated to start Sunday
Rodriguez said Saturday that he's going to start Sunday's series finale against the Mets, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.
Rodriguez was called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday to take the place of Max Fried (elbow) in the Yankees' rotation. It appears the rookie right-hander won't have to wait long to make his third big-league start, as he's set to face the Mets on Sunday. Ryan Weathers had previously been in line to start that contest, so it appears he's being pushed back at least one day.
