Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Carlos Rodon didn't miss a beat in his return to the rotation on Thursday versus the Toronto Blue Jays. Rodon returned after missing a few weeks with shoulder fatigue. The lefty tossed five innings and allowed five hits, two runs, one walk and struck out three on the afternoon. The three strikeouts were the lowest number that he's recorded in a game this year, but managers shouldn't be concerned about that at the moment. Rodon has mostly been healthy this season and has been putting together a career year. For the season, Rodon is 10-5 with a 2.43 ERA to go along with 163 strikeouts in 114 2/3 innings. Next up for Rodon will be a matchup versus the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday.

The Chicago White Sox activated starting pitcher Carlos Rodon (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list ahead of Thursday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. The team optioned infielder Danny Mendick to Triple-A in a corresponding move. Rodon is set to start Thursday's game and go up against Blue Jays starter Hyun-Jin Ryu. Rodon has been out since early August due to left shoulder fatigue. He is in the midst of a fantastic season. Over 19 starts, he's gone 9-5 with a 2.38 ERA and a 0.96 WHIP. In his last start before the injury, he struck out 11 Cubs over five scoreless innings. Fantasy managers can safely insert Rodon back into their lineups ahead of Thursday's game.

Chicago White Sox pitcher Carlos Rodon (shoulder) is expected to be activated from the injured list and take the mound on Thursday against the Toronto Blue Jays, manager Tony La Russa told the press. The 28-year-old was placed on the injured list retroactive to August 8 with left shoulder fatigue. Rodon has a 9-5 record and 2.38 ERA on the season, so fantasy managers are no doubt ecstatic to hear he is returning to the rotation.

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Carlos Rodon (shoulder) is aiming to return to the rotation next week against the Toronto Blue Jays, Chicago Sun-Times reporter Daryl Van Schouwen said. Rodon was placed on the 10-day injured list retroactive to August 8 with left shoulder fatigue. The 28-year-old pitched five scoreless innings in his last start, striking out 11 and allowing just two hits and two walks against the Chicago Cubs. With a 9-5 record and 2.38 ERA on the season, fantasy managers should absolutely keep their eyes peeled for his return.

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Carlos Rodon (shoulder) could return soon as an exam was encouraging and showed no damage, according to The Athletic. Manager Tony La Russa said there's a chance Rodon pitches in Toronto, a series scheduled to begin Aug. 23. Rodon was placed on the 10-day injured list with left shoulder fatigue prior to Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Twins, a move retroactive to August 8. He pitched five scoreless innings against the Chicago Cubs in his latest start, allowing just two hits and two walks while striking out 11. Fantasy managers should stay patient with the left-hander, who is having a breakout campaign at 9-5 with a 2.38 ERA.

The Chicago White Sox placed starting pitcher Carlos Rodon (shoulder) on the 10-day injured list with left shoulder fatigue prior to Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Twins. The move is retroactive to August 8. Relief pitcher Matt Foster was called up from Triple-A in a corresponding move. The news of Rodon's injury is a bit of a surprise as he was coming off of an extremely dominant start and there were no reports of fatigue afterwards. He pitched five scoreless innings against the Chicago Cubs this Saturday, allowing just two hits and two walks while striking out 11. There's no word on the severity of the injury or his timetable for a return at this point, but he'll at least miss his next start.

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Carlos Rodon picked up his ninth victory of the season on Saturday versus the Chicago Cubs. Rodon worked five innings and allowed two hits, zero runs, two walks and struck out 11 on the year. The first time All-Star is enjoying a career year for the Pale Hose and more importantly has been healthy all season. Rodon is now 9-5 with a shiny 2.38 ERA. Next up for the lefty will be a date with the New York Yankees on Thursday. Rodon should continue to be started with confidence in all matchups by managers.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Luis Patiño outpitched Gerrit Cole, Brett Phillips hit a grand slam during a 10-run sixth inning, and the Tampa Bay Rays avoided a three-game sweep by routing the New York Yankees 14-0 on Thursday. Patiño (2-2) allowed three hits in six innings. The 21-year-old right-hander, acquired in the trade that sent Blake Snell to San Diego last December, struck out eight and walked two.

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Carlos Rodon had a rare bump in the road with a loss versus the Kansas City Royals on Thursday. Rodon has been dominant for nearly the entire season, but only lasted four innings this afternoon. The lefty allowed eight hits, four runs, zero walks and struck out four. The first time All-Star has been dominant this season and managers should feel confident chalking this up as just a bad outing. Rodon is now 8-5 with a 2.49 ERA and will get the Royals in a rematch on Wednesday.
