Seems like Tony is really going out of his way to poo-poo all things Rodon-related.  Not sure if that’s gamesmanship, an assist to the org for negotiation purposes, just a reflection of undeniable reality, or some combination.

Reality, imo. Hoping for the best though.

It's accepting reality.

I have real concerns that he is even going to be on the playoff roster at this point.  

Definitely a legit concern.  
 

I hold out hope that most of this was by design.  If you were the Sox and Rodon coming off of those surgeries & missed years, wouldn’t the plan probably be 100-150 IP?  
 

With the division all but officially locked up in June, maybe this is by design.  
 

Wouldn’t that explain Rodon being pissed.  He feels he can go but Sox are being extra cautious

I just keep coming back to the Boston start.  That was not that long ago.  He looked good.  It was after this problem--whatever it is--appeared.  If there was a clear-cut medical issue I don't think he'd be capable of a start like that.  It makes me hopeful that it really is just a fatigue/dead arm issue and that he can be useful in the playoffs.
