NJ Advance Media | Randy Miller: New York had been on alert in recent days due to Carlos Rodón’s balky back, on top of his forearm injury recovery. This weekend represented a step on the right direction, though, as manager Aaron Boone told reporters that the southpaw played catch before Sunday’s game against the Blue Jays. A second CT scan on his back came up clean.
The left-hander is probably looking at a June return now because he still has to throw a bullpen or two, complete live batting practice, and go to a minor league rehab assignment.
