  • Brewers' Elvin Rodriguez: Optioned to Triple-A

    The Brewers optioned Rodriguez to Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

    After Tyler Alexander was tagged for eight runs (four earned) over four innings in Monday's start against the Tigers, Rodriguez came on in relief and tossed 68 pitches across five innings. The Brewers needed a fresh arm and recalled prospect Logan Henderson to take Rodriguez's spot.

  • Brewers' Elvin Rodriguez: Saves bullpen in blowout loss

    Rodriguez struck out seven and allowed one earned run on three hits and no walks over five innings of relief during Monday's 9-1 loss to the Tigers.

    After yielding 11 earned runs over nine innings in his first two starts of the season, Rodriguez was moved to the bullpen late last week when Jose Quintana was called up from Triple-A Nashville. Rodriguez made a one-out appearance last Thursday in Colorado but was called upon for an extended piggyback outing behind starter Tyler Alexander on Monday after the latter pitcher was lit up for eight runs (four earned) through the first four innings. Per Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com, Rodriguez made use of a new pitch mix in Monday's appearance, scrapping the fastball-heavy approach he used in his first two starts and instead throwing sweepers and curveballs on 40 of his 68 pitches on the night. The adjusted pitch mix yielded strong results, but Rodriguez is unlikely to be reappointed to the rotation anytime soon, especially with Tobias Myers (oblique) on track to return from the injured list next week and Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) not being far behind him.

  • Brewers' Elvin Rodriguez: Moves to bullpen

    Rodriguez worked in relief in Thursday's 7-2 loss to the Rockies, retiring one batter via strikeout and allowing a double to the other batter he faced.

    With Jose Quintana completing his ramp-up program at Triple-A Nashville and getting called up to make his Brewers debut Friday, Rodriguez ended up shifting to the bullpen. The Brewers' decision to drop Rodriguez from the rotation came as little surprise, as he had served up 11 earned runs on 14 hits and two walks over nine innings between his two starts. He'll likely see most of his usage in lower-leverage spots moving forward.

  • Brewers' Elvin Rodriguez: Hit hard vs. Reds

    Rodriguez (0-2) took the loss Saturday against Cincinnati, allowing seven runs on eight hits and a walk over five innings. He struck out two.

    It was a brutal night for Rodriguez, who surrendered four home runs in the loss. Through two starts, the right-hander has given up 11 earned runs on 14 hits across nine innings. Rodriguez figures to head to the bullpen or the minors as soon as the Brewers can return any of their six starters that are currently on the injured list.

  • Brewers' Elvin Rodriguez: Will get another start

    Rodriguez will Saturday against the Reds, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Rodriguez coughed up four runs on six hits and one walk over four innings Monday against the Royals in his first start in the majors since 2022. The Brewers are in a tough spot as they navigate multiple injuries in their rotation, so they will give Rodriguez at least one more opportunity.

  • Brewers' Elvin Rodriguez: Gives up four runs in loss

    Rodriguez (0-1) allowed four runs on six hits and one walk over four innings Monday, striking out three and taking the loss against the Royals.

    Rodriguez got roughed up right out of the gate with three first-inning runs, and he gave up a fourth in the second frame when he gave up a solo home run to Maikel Garcia. Rodriguez was able to retire eight of the next 10 batters faced, but he wasn't able to get enough run support from the Brewers hitters to avoid the loss. He'll look to get off to a better start in his next outing, which is slated for this upcoming weekend against the Reds at home.

  • Brewers' Elvin Rodriguez: Hoping for 80 pitches Monday

    Brewers manager Pat Murphy said the team is hoping to get 80 pitches out of Rodriguez during Monday's start against the Royals, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Rodriguez got stretched out to 3.2 innings and 62 pitches during spring training and did not make an appearance during the Brewers' season-opening series against the Yankees, so around 80 pitches would seem to be attainable. He could be needed for additional starts as Milwaukee navigates a multitude of pitching injuries.

  • Brewers' Elvin Rodriguez: Tabbed as opener Monday

    Rodriguez will start Monday's game against the Royals as an opening pitcher, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    The right-hander didn't pitch in Milwaukee's first two games of the season versus the Yankees, but he'll take the mound as an opener Monday with Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) and Tobias Myers (oblique) on the injured list and Jose Quintana still ramping up. Rodriguez had a 15:2 K:BB across 10.2 innings during spring training but surrendered nine earned runs and three homers. He built up to 3.2 innings in Cactus League play, so he could be capable of offering more length than the typical opener.

  • Brewers' Elvin Rodriguez: Gets MLB deal from Milwaukee

    The Brewers signed Rodriguez to a one-year contract with a club option for 2026, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Rodriguez spent the last year-and-a-half in Japan with the Yakult Swallows, posting a 2.77 ERA and 67:25 K:BB across 78 innings. The right-hander has eight appearances under his belt at the major-league level, having allowed 35 runs in 33 frames.

  • Rays' Elvin Rodriguez: Perfect outing in season debut

    Rodriguez struck out five over 3.1 perfect innings during Friday's 2-1 loss against Atlanta.

    Rodriguez was recalled from Triple-A Durham before Friday's game and was called on to replace Tyler Glasnow (cramps) in the sixth. The 25-year-old made the most of his opportunity by tossing 3.1 perfect innings against one of the best offenses in baseball. It's unclear if Rodriguez will get additional opportunities with the Rays following the All-Star break.

  • Elvin Rodriguez: Heading to Japan

    Rodriguez was designated for assignment by the Rays on Saturday and will head overseas to pitch in Japan, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    In an unusual sequence of events, Rodriguez reportedly had a deal with a Japanese team in place earlier in the week but was nonetheless called up by the Rays on Friday and proceeded to toss 3.1 perfect innings against Atlanta. The injury-plagued Rays' pitching staff could probably use him in the second half, but he'll be pitching in NPB on a deal which is apparently "lucrative."

  • Rays' Elvin Rodriguez: Selected from Durham

    The Rays selected Rodriguez from Triple-A Durham on Friday, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.

    Rodriguez holds a 3.40 ERA and 1.11 WHIP through 45 innings across 10 starts in Triple-A this season. He recently returned from right elbow tightness, and now he'll head to the majors, although it's not clear what his role might be for Tampa Bay. Rodriguez has a bit of major-league experience already -- he pitched 29.2 innings for Detroit last season and put up a 10.62 ERA and 1.92 WHIP alongside a 25:15 K:BB. Ryan Thompson was optioned to Durham to clear a spot on the active roster, and Jose Lopez was DFA'd to clear a 40-man spot.

  • Rays' Elvin Rodriguez: Returns from IL

    Rodriguez (elbow) was reinstated from Triple-A Durham's 7-day injured list Sunday and covered three innings while striking out two and allowing one run on three hits and one walk in his return to the rotation.

    Rodriguez missed approximately five weeks due to right elbow tightness before he was cleared to rejoin the Durham rotation after making just one rehab start in the rookie-level Florida Complex League. The 25-year-old was on a limited workload Sunday, but he was generally efficient during his time on the mound, spotting 38 of his 55 pitches for strikes. Rodriguez doesn't have a spot on the Rays' 40-man roster, but he could nonetheless emerge as a starting option for the big club if he can stay healthy and continue to turn in quality results with Durham.

  • Rays' Elvin Rodriguez: To IL with elbow tightness

    Rodriguez has been placed on the 7-day injured list with Triple-A Durham due to elbow tightness, Bulls play-by-play voice Patrick Kinas reports.

    The 25-year-old righty logged a 3.43 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 46 strikeouts in 42 innings across nine starts for Durham before exiting his last start after 58 pitches with the injury. He is not on the 40-man roster but had seemingly pitched himself into position for a return trip to the majors before this setback. Rodriguez should be considered out indefinitely.

  • Rays' Elvin Rodriguez: Things clicking in new org

    Rodriguez has a 1.57 ERA, 0.70 WHIP and 22 strikeouts in 23 innings through four starts for Triple-A Durham.

    Rodriguez was once a top prospect with the Tigers, but he was designated for assignment this past offseason and the Rays scooped him up on a minor-league deal. The Rays seem to be working their magic with Rodriguez, and he could be an option in the big-league rotation later this season.

  • Rays' Elvin Rodriguez: Gets NRI deal from Tampa Bay

    Rodriguez agreed Wednesday with the Rays on a minor-league deal that includes an invitation to spring training, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Rodriguez, 24, struggled to a 10.62 ERA and 25:15 K:BB while allowing 12 home runs in a 29.2-inning sample with Detroit in 2022. The right-hander will try and win a spot on the Rays' staff in the Grapefruit League, but he faces an uphill battle to break camp with the big club given Tampa Bay's ample pitching depth.

  • Tigers' Elvin Rodriguez: Removed from 40-man roster

    Rodriguez cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Toledo on Thursday.

    Rodriguez appeared in seven games (five starts) for the Tigers in 2022 but won't stay on the 40-man roster through the offseason. He had a 10.62 ERA, 1.92 WHIP and 25:15 K:BB across 29.2 innings.

  • Tigers' Elvin Rodriguez: Hammered by Mariners

    Rodriguez (0-4) took the 9-6 loss in Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader against Seattle, allowing six runs on seven hits and two walks with five strikeouts in 3.2 innings.

    Rodriguez was called up as the 29th man and followed opener Will Vest, recording the final out of the first inning with the bases loaded. His appearance progressively declined thereafter with a clean second, a one-run third, a two-run fourth and a three-run fifth as the 24-year-old has now lost each of his last four starts. He concludes the season with a 10.62 ERA and 1.92 WHIP with 25 strikeouts in 29.2 innings across seven appearances and five starts.

  • Tigers' Elvin Rodriguez: Heads to minors after rough start

    The Tigers returned Rodriguez to Triple-A Toledo after he served as Detroit's 29th man for Tuesday's doubleheader with Seattle.

    Rodriguez dropped to 0-4 after he started in the Tigers' 9-6 loss in Game 2, covering 3.2 innings and striking out five while allowing six earned runs on seven hits and two walks. The 24-year-old right-hander was routinely roughed up while making seven appearances (five starts) for Detroit during his rookie campaign, submitting a 10.62 ERA and 1.92 WHIP in 29.2 innings overall.
