Carlos Rodon delivered one of the most complete seasons of his career in 2025, posting a 3.09 ERA across 195.1 innings with a 1.05 WHIP and 203 strikeouts, earning Cy Young consideration. The underlying profile supports the rebound: opponents hit just .188 against him with a career-best .230 BABIP, while his ground-ball rate (43.1%) ticked back up and hard-hit rate dipped below league average. His strikeout rate (25.7%) wasn't quite at his 2021-2022 peak, but improved run prevention and workload stability made him a high-end fantasy anchor. The 2026 projections expect some ERA regression closer to his FIP (3.78 in 2025) and normalized BABIP, but still forecast a durable SP2 with strong win equity in New York. He is currently recovering from an elbow procedure and is projected to begin his season in late April/early May.
