Rodriguez didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 8-5 extra-inning win over the Orioles, giving up four runs on six hits and four walks over five innings. He struck out three. The veteran southpaw managed to toss just 59 of his 98 pitches for strikes in his worst start so far in 2026, but Rodriguez ducked his first loss of the year when Arizona tied things up in the top of the sixth inning. Rodriguez sports a 1.96 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 14:9 K:BB through 23 innings, and he's failed to eclipse five punchouts in any of his four starts. He'll look to bounce back in his next outing, which lines up to come at home next week against the White Sox.

Eduardo Rodriguez: Breaking News
Excellent again Thursday
Rodriguez (1-0) earned the win over the Mets on Thursday, allowing one run on five hits and two walks while striking out three batters over six innings. Rodriguez allowed a solo homer to Luis Robert in the first inning, but New York was unable to score after that. That long ball represented the first -- and only -- earned run Rodriguez has given up through three starts spanning 18 innings in what has been a dazzling start to the campaign. The veteran southpaw's 11:5 K:BB is far less impressive, but as long as he continues to limit runs, fantasy managers will be happy to roll him out on days he starts. Rodriguez is next scheduled to take the mound in Baltimore against an Orioles squad that ranks in the bottom half of the league in runs scored so far this season.
Strong in no-decision
Rodriguez allowed four hits and a walk while striking out three over seven scoreless innings in a no-decision versus Atlanta on Friday. Rodriguez has allowed just one unearned run over 12 innings across his first two starts of the season. He just didn't get any support Friday, as Atlanta's Grant Holmes tossed six innings of one-hit ball in the pitchers' duel. Rodriguez struggled to a 5.02 ERA and 1.54 WHIP over 154.1 innings across 29 regular-season starts in 2025, so his strong performance early in 2026 is at least intriguing, though the southpaw may continue to lack run support. Rodriguez's next start is projected to be on the road versus the Mets.
