The Yankees have begun rearranging their rotation for the postseason.
Carlos Rodón will leapfrog Will Warren and start Thursday in a series finale against the White Sox, which will come on four days of rest.
Doing so gives the second-most reliable Yankees starter an extra day of rest ahead of Game 2 of the wild-card round — a round that remains most likely playoff fate for the Yankees, but a round the club hopes to avoid with a late charge up the division.
Rodón follows Max Fried, who will pitch Wednesday on regular rest and then would get the ball on five days of rest for Game 1.
