Signed by Red Sox
Rodriguez (shoulder) signed a one-year contract with the Red Sox on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Rodriguez will head to Boston after spending the 2022 campaign with the Mets, posting a 4.47 ERA and 1.35 WHIP with 57 strikeouts over 50.1 innings in 55 appearances. The 31-year-old sustained a shoulder injury in the postseason, the severity of which has yet to be disclosed, though he seems likely to be ready to go for spring training in February. Rodriguez will provide the Red Sox with another left-handed arm out of the bullpen. Based on his performance in 2023, the team has a club option to retain him for an additional season.

After Rodriguez spent 2018 in the minor leagues and 2019 pitching abroad, he returned to the major leagues in 2020 as a part of the Rangers bullpen. The time away gave him the chance to replace the slider in his arsenal with a changeup. The result was a breakout campaign, as Rodriguez registered a 32.7 K% -- nearly double his previous best mark of 17.9%. Paired with a 51.7% groundball rate, Rodriguez posted a strong 2.13 ERA and 1.03 WHIP across 12 innings. Given the small-sample nature of the 2020 campaign, it's reasonable to expect pullback. For example, Rodriguez didn't allow a home run, something that is sure to change as he throws more. Even so, Rodriguez's skills provide some confidence that he will be a stable arm in the Rangers' bullpen. While not the most likely outcome, Rodriguez could factor into the saves picture given the offseason trade that sent Rafael Montero to Seattle.
