Yankees pitcher Carlos Rodón buys St. Petersburg mansion for $8.8 million

Another New Yorker is moving to Tampa Bay.

According to the Tampa Bay Business Journal, two-time MLB All-Star left-hander Carlos Rodón recently purchased a home in St. Petersburg’s Snell Isle neighborhood for $8.8 million.

The 6,037-square-foot home was built in 2022, and comes with five bedrooms and six bathrooms, as well as an elevator, wine cellar, outdoor kitchen,  new seawall,  Infinity Edge pool, dock and more.

Last year, the Miami-native signed a six-year, $162 million contract with the New York Yankees, but has sat out this season due to a forearm strain.

Rodón now joins a long list of Yankees that have called Tampa Bay home at one point or another, including Derek Jeter, the Steinbrenners, Nick Swisher, Mark Melancon, and
Gary Sheffield, to name a few.
