Notes

10/19/25
Rodriguez showed well on both sides of the ball, highlighted by his 79 mph arm velocity behind the dish with accurate throws and strong carry to 2B, posting 2.04-2.14 pop times during the workout. With some refinement to his glove-to-hand transfer and footwork, those numbers could take another step forward given his already notable arm strength. At the plate, Rodriguez recorded a max exit velocity of 96.4 mph and averaged 87.9 mph, showing a level, low line-drive swing with strength through contact and a projectable 5-11, 184-pound frame that carries present strength in the upper half. He also hopped on the mound, topping out at 84 mph and sitting 81-83 mph with his FB while mixing in a 68-70 mph CB that showed modest depth and vertical break. While Rodriguez’s long-term future is clearly behind the plate, his brief showing on the mound further emphasized his athleticism, arm talent, and overall versatility.
