We've been lobbying for this since
at least March 18th—bring up phenom left-handed starter
Eduardo Rodriguez! While the Red Sox are not committing to anything beyond
this Thursday's start against the Rangers, don't be surprised if Rodriguez sticks and someone else (
Joe Kelly?) heads to the bullpen. So far this year, the 22-year old Venezuelan is 4-3 with a 2.98 ERA at AAA. He's walked just seven and struck out forty-four in 48.1 innings for the PawSox. Rodriguez could turn out to be a
major steal—after being picked up in the deal last year with Baltimore for
Andrew Miller. Stay tuned!
