Traded to Phillies The White Sox traded Rodriguez to the Phillies on Friday in exchange for cash.
Impact Rodriguez was designated for assignment Thursday but will remain on a 40-man roster as he joins the Phillies organization. The 22-year-old infielder reached Triple-A for the first time last season, slashing .253/.270/.379 across 89 plate appearances, but he will return to Double-A to begin 2024.

Returns to big leagues Rodriguez was recalled from Double-A Binghamton on Friday.
Impact Rodriguez was up briefly with the White Sox back in June but didn't receive a plate appearance. He's posted a .747 OPS with 18 home runs and 28 stolen bases in 87 games with Binghamton this season. The 22-year-old can handle second base, third base and shortstop.

Sent back to Double-A The White Sox optioned Rodriguez to Double-A Birmingham on Monday.
Impact Rodriguez appeared in only one game -- and did not draw a plate appearance -- during his week-long stay on Chicago's major-league roster. The 22-year-old infielder now returns to the Double-A level, where he has posted a .702 OPS with nine homers and nine steals in 44 games this season.

Brought up from Double-A Rodriguez was recalled from Double-A Birmingham on Monday, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Impact Rodriguez got off to a slow start with Birmingham but has put together a robust .353/.384/.662 slash line with five home runs and four stolen bases over his last 16 contests. The 22-year-old is regarded as one of the White Sox' better prospects and possesses an intriguing skill set for fantasy with some pop and speed. However, there's no guarantee that he'll play regularly, so fantasy managers shouldn't be rushing out to grab him.
