In midst of cold stretch

ANALYSIS

He's struggled considerably across his last 10 starts, managing only a .167 batting average with three RBI and four runs scored. Positively, he's struck out at only a 20 percent clip in that span, so he could turn things around prior to the close of the regular season.

Aug 27, 2023
On bench Sunday
Rodriguez is absent from the lineup Sunday against the Cubs.
ANALYSIS
Jason Delay will start at catcher and bat ninth. Rodriguez went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in the Pirates' loss to Chicago on Saturday and is slashing just .235/.306/.378 through his first 33 major-league games.
Aug 25, 2023
Absent from lineup
Rodriguez is not in the lineup for Friday's tilt versus the Cubs, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Pirates have now gone with Jason Delay at catcher for two of the last three games, although Rodriguez did appear as a pinch-hitter in the first of those contests he didn't start. Rodriguez also caught all 10 frames of Thursday's extra-innings loss to the Cubs, so he'll begin this one on the bench.
Aug 23, 2023
Not in Wednesday's lineup

ANALYSIS
The two teams are playing a day game after a night game, so Rodriguez will take a seat after catching in Tuesday's win over St. Louis. Jason Delay will be behind the plate and will form a battery with starting pitcher Luis Ortiz.
Aug 22, 2023
Reaches base four times in win
Rodriguez went 3-for-4 with an RBI and two runs scored in Monday's win over the Cardinals.
ANALYSIS
Rodriguez was on the basepaths all night, collecting three singles and drawing a walk in Pittsburgh's blowout victory. In 29 games since earning the promotion from Triple-A on July 17, the rookie catcher has posted a slash line of .267/.337/.430 with two home runs, eight RBI and 13 runs scored across 95 plate appearances. Rodriguez has showcased an impressive average exit velocity of 90.4 mph and an above-average walk rate of 9.5 percent. However, his 27.4 percent strikeout rate may impact his overall productivity.
Aug 19, 2023

Aug 8, 2023
Sitting Tuesday
Rodriguez is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Atlanta.
ANALYSIS
Rodriguez hit his second career homer Sunday as part of his first career three-hit game, and he followed up with a double and a run scored in Monday's contest. The 23-year-old will get a day to rest his legs as Jason Delay takes over behind the plate to catch for starter Mitch Keller.
Aug 6, 2023
Homers as part of three-hit day
Rodriguez went 3-for-4 with a solo homer and two runs scored in Sunday's win over the Brewers.
ANALYSIS
Rodriguez tallied his second multi-hit effort and his first three-hit game since he was called up in mid-July. The 23-year-old has gotten off to a slow start in his first taste at the major league level, as he's now slashing .231/.286/.462 with two homers, seven RBI, 8 runs and a 4:20 BB:K in 56 plate appearances. Rodriguez should get all the playing time he can handle down the stretch with his only competition behind the dish being Jason Delay, who has made two starts since being called up Aug. 1.
Aug 2, 2023
Gets rest day
Rodriguez is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Jul 30, 2023
Sits after career day
Rodriguez is not in Sunday's lineup against the Phillies.
ANALYSIS
Rodriguez posted an impressive four-RBI game Saturday, highlighted by a bases-clearing triple in the fifth inning. After a slow start in the majors, he has at least one hit in eight of his last nine games. However, he'll get a day of rest behind the dish with Austin Hedges taking over and hitting ninth.
Jul 23, 2023
Takes seat Sunday
Rodriguez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
ANALYSIS
Rodriguez is 3-for-16 with a double, a solo home run and nine strikeouts in his first five big-league games, and he'll sit Sunday after starting the first two games of the series in Anaheim. Austin Hedges enters the lineup to catch for Mitch Keller.
Jul 23, 2023
Smacks first big-league homer
Rodriguez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Angels.
ANALYSIS
Rodriguez's first big-league homer came in the sixth inning to close out the scoring. After opening his Pirates career 0-for-7, he's hit safely in each of his last three games. The catcher has also struck out nine times in 17 plate appearances so far, so he still has some adjusting to do. Rodriguez is expected to learn on the job with a majority of the playing time behind the plate, with veteran Austin Hedges serving as his backup.
Jul 19, 2023
Day off Wednesday
Rodriguez is not in the starting lineup against the Guardians on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Rodriguez will get a day off after he went 0-for-7 with six strikeouts over his first two major-league contests following his promotion Monday. Austin Hedges will start behind the plate and bat ninth in the series finale with Cleveland.
Jul 17, 2023
Will receive bulk of catcher starts
Rodriguez was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis on Monday, Justice delos Santos of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Pirates manager Derek Shelton noted that Rodriguez will see the bulk of the starts at catcher moving forward, with Austin Hedges starting a couple times per week. Henry Davis still hasn't started a game at catcher since his promotion. Rodriguez got off to a slow start this season at Indianapolis while battling a forearm issue, but he had come on strong in slashing .371/.461/.565 with two home runs over his last 15 games. He should be rostered in two-catcher formats.
Jul 16, 2023
Call-up imminent
Rodriguez will be called up by the Pirates on Monday, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
ANALYSIS
Rodriguez had a brief stint at Triple-A Indianapolis last year and has spent the start of the 2023 campaign with the Triple-A club. Over 67 games this year, he's slashed .268/.356/.419 with six homers, 54 runs, 38 RBI and four stolen bases. The 23-year-old has had four multi-hit performances over his past five appearances and will now be rewarded with his first big-league call-up. Henry Davis has seen plenty of time in right field since being called up, so Rodriguez should have ample opportunities to carve out playing time behind the dish.
Jul 11, 2023
Heating up at Indianapolis
Rodriguez is slashing .326/.400/.465 with one home run, three doubles and more walks (six) than strikeouts (five) in his last 10 games with Triple-A Indianapolis.
ANALYSIS
Henry Davis beat Rodriguez to the big leagues this season, although 17 of Davis' 20 appearances have come in right field, so Rodriguez still projects as Pittsburgh's catcher of the future. The switch-hitting Rodriguez hasn't hit for much power (.133 ISO) this year at Triple-A and his .290 BABIP is by far his lowest mark in full-season ball. His strike zone awareness has been great all season, and this recent hot streak could be a sign that things are starting to click at the plate.
Apr 29, 2023
Active at Triple-A
Rodriguez (forearm) was activated from the minor-league injured list with Triple-A Indianapolis on Saturday, Rob Biertempfel of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 22-year-old switch hitter had a .263/.333/.456 slash line with three home runs and an 8:6 K:BB in 14 games before suffering a forearm strain. In addition to 12 starts behind the dish, Rodriguez made one start at first base and one start at designated hitter. He could get a call-up sometime in the coming weeks if he performs well.
Apr 27, 2023
Returning soon at Triple-A
Rodriguez (forearm) is expected to return at DH for Triple-A Indianapolis within the next week, Alex Stumpf of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Rodriguez landed on the minor-league injured list last Friday after being diagnosed with a right forearm strain, but it thankfully seems to be relatively minor. The 22-year-old catcher ranks as one of the top prospects at his position and could make his MLB debut later this season if his health cooperates.
Apr 22, 2023
Diagnosed with forearm strain
Rodriguez is dealing with a strained right forearm, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Rodriguez hit the minor-league injured list Friday with an arm injury, but his exact diagnosis was not yet available. He'll be evaluated Monday in Pittsburgh, at which point a clearer timeline for his recovery should emerge.
Apr 21, 2023
Placed on minor-league IL
Rodriguez (arm) was placed on the 7-day injured list Friday at Triple-A Indianapolis, Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Rodriguez connected for his third home run of the season Thursday against the Triple-A affiliate of the Cardinals, but he later departed that game after injuring his right arm on a throw. There's no exact diagnosis yet for the highly-touted 22-year-old catcher. He's scheduled to visit with the Pirates' medical staff this weekend.
Mar 14, 2023
Optioned to Triple-A
The Pirates optioned Rodriguez to Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
The 22-year-old catching prospect tore his way through the minors last season, slashing .323/.407/.590 between the High-A, Double-A and Triple-A levels. While he will begin 2023 in Triple-A, Rodriguez's offensive abilities, defensive versatility and Pittsburgh's lack of production behind the plate at the major-league level all make him a candidate to be called up early in the season.
Feb 2, 2023
Invited to major-league camp
Rodriguez received an invitation to the major-league side of Pirates camp this spring.
ANALYSIS
One of the top position-player prospects in the sport, Rodriguez slashed .323/.407.590 with 25 home runs and 95 RBI in 125 games last season between High-A Greensboro, Double-A Altoona and Triple-A Indianapolis. The 22-year-old catcher seems doubtful to actually make the Opening Day roster in Pittsburgh, but he is certainly on the fast track.
