Emmanuel Rodriguez - Promoted to Triple-ARodriguez has been promoted from Double-A Wichita to Triple-A St. Paul, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
ImpactRodriguez just recently returned from a right thumb injury with a rehab game at Single-A Fort Myers over the weekend and now will move up to the Twins' highest minor-league affiliate. The 21-year-old has been excellent this season when healthy, slashing .298/.479/.621 with eight home runs, nine stolen bases and 46:42 K:BB over 37 games with Wichita. Rodriguez is already on the 40-man roster, but it seems unlikely he pushes for a promotion to the majors later this month.
