He’ll add some depth in the outfield for the Orioles as Tyler O’Neill lands on the 7-day concussion injured list. The 26-year-old was hitting .333/.485/.375 with zero homers, two RBI and an 8/8 K/BB ratio in his first eight games at Triple-A Norfolk.

Rodriguez, 25, was designated for assignment on Wednesday. He has enough power that he would be intriguing for fantasy purposes if he ever found himself in an everyday role, though he has failed to make consistent enough contact thus far to earn that opportunity.

The Guardians needed a spot on the 40-man roster for Rhys Hoskins, so Rodríguez was waived to make room. The 26-year-old has plus power but struggles to make enough contact to make use of that.

Rodríguez, 26, wound up playing a role during the Guardians’ magical stretch run in 2025 as a masher against left-handed pitching. He faced a crowded outfield mix this spring and wound up on the outside looking in. He should get an opportunity at some point during the first half of the 2026 campaign.

The Guardians will be going with their typical lineup against left-handed pitching, which means Rodríguez will start in right field, with Jhonkensy Noel starting at first base, Austin Hedges catching, and Angel Martinez in center field. Rodríguez is slashing .240/.309/.460 against lefties this season with two home runs in 55 plate appearances, so his presence doesn’t move the needle a huge amount.

With the East and Central champs are still to be determined, the AL postseason field is set, as the Astros have been eliminated. Tonight’s contest was tied at 2-2 for much of the game. Rodriguez walked with two outs against Robert Garcia to start the ninth-inning rally. Kyle Manzardo singled, Gabriel Arias was intentionally walked and C.J. Kayfus was hit by a pitch to end it. Incredibly, Garcia had never hit a batter in 155 2/3 major league innings before getting Kayfus in the arm. It was also the first game-ending HBP in MLB this year.

Rodriguez is now hitting .360/.442/.547 in 75 at-bats with three home runs, 21 strikeouts, and 11 walks in Triple-A. With Jhonkensy Noel hitting .164/.186/.269 with a 30 percent strikeout rate at the big league level, it’s possible the Guardians could make a swap.
