But is Carlos Rodon good or are the last 2 years a fluke?

I think he's closer to average than good.But he is good. You’re still thinking elite. But I’m not going to keep dwelling on it
Hitting dblplay1212 with the facts, that Gleyber is, in fact a GOOD player. He may not be Elite or even Great, but he is a GOOD player2019? He hit 38 HRs with a juiced ball. Maybe Albies is the only one who Will get to 35 at 2B.
But anyway
2019 / 2023
BA .278 / .269
OBP .337 / .337
SLG .535 / .441
OPS+ 128 / 114
BB 48 / 46
SO 129 / 68 (would need to strike out 61 of his next 100 at bats to match the rate)
2B 26 / 18
3B 0 / 2
HR 38 / 18
RBI 90 / 48
R 96 / 65
108 PA / 104AB more in 2019.
You can say he has 60% of the power, sure. But also different ball.
EV is 0.3mph less and his hard hit is 0.2% more
Line drives, ground balls and fly balls all within 1% of 2019 & 2023. (Baseball ref, fan graphs actually has a higher EV and hard hit % in 2023)
Also pulling the ball 8% less than 2019. And distributed 4.3% more to center and 3.7% more oppo
Everything is as good or impacted by playing on a bad offensive team. 2019 team offense, 1st. 2023 offense, 20th.
And wRC+ was 125 compared to 115 now. That's a big difference in both, going from a little above average to good. I stand by my post. Hope he stays hot.OPS+ 128 / 114
