ImpactRodriguez coughed up three home runs Friday, including Corey Seagers' grand slam in the fourth inning that bounced him from the contest. Over his last five starts, Rodriguez has allowed a whopping 27 runs (11 home runs), raising his season ERA from 4.07 to 7.35 through 45.1 innings. It's hard to find a bright spot from Friday's start but the rookie's 13 swinging strikes marked the first time he recorded double-digit whiffs since April 29. Rodriguez will look to snap out of the funk in his next start, which is lined up to be a home matchup against the Guardians.
