Impact Rodon, who was activated from the injured list earlier in the day, was used at a crucial spot in the game. Jimmy Cordero left with the bases loaded and two out in the seventh inning, and Rodon was tasked with getting the final out. Making his first appearance since Aug. 3, Rodon gave up a two-run single and two-run double. He's expected to pitch out of the bullpen for the White Sox in the postseason, and this looked like an audition for a key setup role -- although if it was, Rodon didn't exactly pass it with flying colors.

Placed on injured list Rodon landed on the the 10-day injured list with shoulder soreness Tuesday, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

Impact Rodon was making just his second start since returning from Tommy John surgery when he was removed due to shoulder soreness Monday as his velocity dropped dramatically. It's not yet clear when he's expected to return. Brady Lail was recalled in a corresponding move, though he's been exclusively a reliever over the last two seasons, so it could be Ross Detwiler who enters the rotation in his absence.

Re-evaluation on tap Rodon (shoulder) will be reevaluated Tuesday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Rodon's velocity dropped below 90 mph in the second inning of his start against the Brewers on Monday, but he managed to surrender only one run in two innings. Van Schouwen mentions Ross Detwiler as a potential replacement for Rodon if he ends up hitting the injured list. Rodon's initial diagnosis was left shoulder soreness.

Exits with shoulder soreness Rodon left Monday's start against the Brewers with left shoulder soreness and will be reevaluated Tuesday.

Impact His fastball velocity fluctuated from the low-90s in the first inning to the mid-80s on his final pitches in the second inning. Despite the troubling downturn in velocity, Rodon only allowed one run on three hits and zero walks while striking out one across two frames. Given his prior history of arm injuries, Rodon should be considered doubtful for his next start.

Impact He only threw 26 pitches (22 strikes), so if Rodon were fully healthy, he probably would have remained in the game. His velocity in the final inning suggests he is not 100 percent, but there has not been any report from the team regarding an injury.

Impact Rodon was hit hard out of the gates, surrendering doubles to Francisco Lindor and Jose Ramirez, prior to being taken yard by Carlos Santana in the first inning. He settled in for the middle portion of his start, but appeared to lose energy in the fourth inning, walking the bases loaded prior to being pulled. While it wasn't a strong performance in the box score, Rodon's velocity ticked up as he went deeper into his start, and he also generated 10 swinging strikes on 71 total pitches. He'll look to improve on this performance during his next turn through the rotation, though he's penciled in for a tough matchup at Milwaukee on Monday.

Impact Gonzalez had been ticketed for the starting rotation back in spring training, but the delayed start to the season bought enough time for Carlos Rodon to rehab from Tommy John elbow surgery. That meant Gonzalez was to be a bulk-inning reliever; however, Lopez's injury opens a spot that could be filled by Gonzalez.

Headed to bullpen Gonzalez will pitch out of the bullpen to start the season, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

Impact Carlos Rodon (elbow) will occupy the team's final spot in the rotation while Gonzalez will provide "length and insurance" out of the bullpen. The southpaw is coming off a 2019 season during which he compiled a 3.50 ERA and 1.29 WHIP across 87.1 innings.

Penciled in for fifth game Rodon (elbow) is scheduled to start Tuesday's game against the Indians, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Impact Rodon, who underwent Tommy John surgery 14 months ago, will be ready to take his first turn through the rotation. His presence in the rotation will push Gio Gonzalez to the bullpen. Across seven starts before getting injured last season, Rodon posted a 5.19 ERA and 46:17 K:BB in 34.2 innings.

Launches bombs Saturday Robert hit a pair of home runs during Saturday's intrasquad game, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Robert hit over 900 feet of home runs in the game. He sent a Kelvin Herrera fastball back to the shrubbery in center field at Guaranteed Rate Field, then topped that with a blast of Steve Cishek that reached the back row of the left-field bleachers. He's hit three homers during camp, including a shot off Carlos Rodon last Saturday that cleared the fence in center when Robert was off balance and falling down.

Shakes off three HRs Rodon (elbow) allowed three home runs and struck out four over 3.2 innings during Thursday's intrasquad game, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact This was Rodon's second outing since having Tommy John surgery 14 months ago. Despite the home runs -- two by Edwin Encarnacion and one by Tim Anderson -- the left-hander was pleased with his slider. "Slider was sharp, fastball was decent, close to almost all the way," Rodon said. "A couple of missed pitches, things we can get better at, and good thing these don't count." It's unclear where Rodon stands when the season opens. He's almost certain to be part of the rotation at some point during the season, but that may not happen immediately.

Throws 45 pitches Rodon (elbow) started Saturday's intrasquad game and threw 45 pitches, Scot Gregor of the Daily Herald reports.

Impact The action marked the first time Rodon has thrown off the mound at Guaranteed Rate Field since May 2019. "As far as stuff, the ball feels like it was coming out good," Rodon told Scott Merkin of MLB.com. "Today it (velocity) was a little down, and the last BP it was coming out really well. Hopefully, this next go around next five days I get that recovery I need, and I step on the mound and it's back." Rodon added a needs to get up and down a few more times and try to hit the 90-pitch mark before the start of the season. The left-hander may not be part of the rotation to start the season, but he could pitch multiple innings as a reliever (or opener).

JULY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Says he's close to 100 percent Rodon (elbow) threw three innings and 45 pitches during a live batting practice session Sunday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Impact Rodon, who underwent Tommy John surgery last May, described himself as close to 100 percent following the session. He threw all of his pitches, including a fastball he termed "electric." Rodon is next scheduled to pitch in an intra-squad game Friday. The left-hander should be ready to hurl for the White Sox during the 2020 season, but he may not have a spot in the rotation right away. The White Sox currently have five healthy starters, so Rodon may have to bounce between the rotation and bullpen.
