White Sox LHP Carlos Rodon scratched from spring start due to biceps tightness

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- The Chicago White Sox scratched Carlos Rodon from his spring start Friday due to left biceps tightness, and general manager Rick Hahn said the left-hander likely would begin the season on the disabled list.

Rodon also had an MRI that showed no structural damage. He will get a second opinion next week.

"We are going to err on the side of caution here, even if it winds up costing him his first couple starts, because we're slowing down the schedule now by scratching him," Hahn said.
