"2 ups today for Carlos Rodón's bullpen session. Next steps TBD, Aaron Boone said said. Anthony Volpe will likely travel home from Tampa with the # Yankees , Boone said. He could start a rehab assignment later that week," Phillips wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
Rodon is seemingly taking steps forward but his next step is currently uncertain. Volpe could potentially return fairly soon if he is able to start a rehab assignment next week.
Volpe is recovering from a shoulder injury . Meanwhile, Rodon is battling back from elbow and hamstring injuries .
The fact that the Yankees are playing well despite not being at full strength is encouraging. Of course, Gerrit Cole also has yet to make his return amid his recovery from Tommy John surgery. The ball club will only benefit from Cole, Rodon and Volpe's returns.
