GRAYSON RODRIGUEZ NEWS

Coughs up four runs Rodriguez yielded four runs on seven hits and two walks over five-plus innings in Monday's loss to the Dodgers. He struck out four and did not factor in the decision.

Impact Rodriguez looked strong Monday, yielding just one run through five frames. He then allowed three straight batters to reach base in the sixth inning and was charged with three more runs. It was his first MLB outing since May 26 after a stint with Triple-A Norfolk and he now owns a 7.33 ERA through 50.1 career innings at the top level. Rodriguez's next outing is projected to be in Tampa Bay this weekend.

Recalled ahead of Monday's start Rodriguez was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on Monday, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

Impact Rodriguez will make his long-awaited return to the Orioles' rotation Monday against the Dodgers. It's a tough matchup, as is a tentative start versus the Rays later this week, but Rodriguez's upside warrants a roster spot in fantasy leagues even if you might not use him right away. The young right-hander posted a 1.69 ERA in 37.1 innings at Norfolk after being optioned in late May.

Starting Monday for Baltimore The Orioles will recall Rodriguez from Triple-A Norfolk on Monday to start against the Dodgers, Steve Melewski of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Rodriguez was sent down to the minors in late May after accumulating a 7.35 ERA and 1.74 WHIP through 45.1 innings across 10 starts to begin his MLB career. Since then, he's put up a 1.69 ERA and 0.99 WHIP through 37.1 frames in Triple-A -- good enough to reclaim a spot in Baltimore's rotation. A corresponding move has yet to be announced.

Impact Rodriguez struck out a career-high 12 batters over six scoreless innings earlier this week against Durham and boasted a 1.83 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 51 strikeouts in 34.1 innings across his six most recent starts prior to Sunday. It would seem that he could rejoin the big-league rotation shortly after the break.

MAY 27, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Sent down Saturday Rodriguez was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday.

Impact Rodriguez will head down to Norfolk after he's struggled on the mound recently, posting an inflated 11.14 ERA and 2.10 WHIP with 22 strikeouts over 21 innings in five starts in May. The 23-year-old has struggled with the long ball this season, surrendering 13 homers over his 10 outings. Rodriguez will now have an opportunity to get back on track with Norfolk before he inevitably gets another shot in the big leagues down the line. Keegan Akin was called up to replace him on the major-league roster Saturday and will likely replace Rodriguez in the starting rotation.

Hammered by Rangers Rodriguez (2-2) allowed nine runs (eight earned) on six hits and three walks over 3.1 frames Friday, striking out six and taking a loss against Texas.

Impact Rodriguez 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.

Six strikeouts in no-decision Rodriguez did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing two runs on four hits and one walk over five frames during a 6-5 loss to Toronto in 10 innings. He struck out six.

Impact Rodriguez bounced back Saturday after allowing eight runs over 3.1 innings in his previous outing versus the Angels. It was his fifth outing of the year allowing two or fewer runs, as 23 of the rookie's 29 earned runs have come in just four of his nine starts. Overall, he boasts an ugly 6.21 ERA and 1.64 WHIP, but his 50:18 K:BB across 42.0 innings remains encouraging. Rodriguez's next start is projected for the opener of a three-game weekend set versus Texas.

Why the Orioles will be MLB's next dynasty

The Baltimore Orioles will become the best team in baseball and win the World Series in the next three years. Here's why.

MAY 19, 2023

Can't get through fourth inning Rodriguez (2-1) took the loss Monday, allowing eight runs on nine hits and three walks over 3.1 innings during a 9-5 loss to the Angels. He struck out three.

Impact Rodriguez served up a season-high eight earned runs Monday and has now allowed multiple home runs in three straight starts. The right-hander has been a hit-or-miss player during his first big-league stint, allowing four total earned runs in four starts (20.2 innings) while surrendering 23 runs over his other four appearances (16.1 innings). Overall, the rookie sports a 6.57 ERA and 1.73 WHIP, but his 44:17 K:BB across 37 innings is encouraging. Rodriguez will look to bounce back in his next start, which is tentatively scheduled for a three-game weekend set versus the Rangers.

No hard innings cap Rodriguez does not have a hard innings cap this season, Orioles manager Brandon Hyde told Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com on Friday.

Impact It will be a necessity to manage Rodriguez's workload after he was limited to just 75.2 innings last season because of a strained lat. However, it sounds like the O's don't have a strict number in mind, or at least not one they're willing to share publicly. Rodriguez went a career-long 5.2 frames and threw a career-high 101 pitches in his last start Tuesday versus the Rays.

Notches second win Rodriguez (2-0) earned the win Tuesday, allowing two runs on seven hits and two walks over 5.2 innings against the Rays. He struck out four.

Impact Rodriguez held the first-place Rays at bay for the majority of Tuesday's outing, allowing just a pair of solo home runs as he improved to 2-0. The home-run ball has hurt Rodriguez recently -- he's allowed five homers in his last two starts (seven innings). He now sports a 5.08 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 41:14 K:BB through his first seven MLB starts. The 23-year-old Rodriguez is currently lined up to face the Angels at home in his next outing.

Knocked around by KC Rodriguez allowed six runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out three batters over 3.2 innings against Kansas City on Thursday. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact Rodriguez entered Thursday having pitched a combined 10 scoreless innings over his previous two appearances, but he couldn't maintain that momentum against the Royals. The right-hander served up three homers and five runs between the third and fourth frames, departing with two outs in the fourth inning having thrown 77 pitches. The eight hits and six total runs he allowed were both season highs, while the three punchouts were a season low. Rodriguez's ERA jumped from 4.07 to 5.46 as a result of the poor outing.
