Scouting Report
Rodriguez spent all of 2019 with the AZL White Sox where he slashed .293/.328/.505 with nine home runs, nine walks and 45 strikeouts. That was good for a wRC+ of 121. He showed that playing stateside for the first time was not too much for him to handle at 18 years old. He’s one of the prospects in the system young enough to withstand the loss of a minor league season, especially if he is still able to get coaching during the year. Rodriguez was expected to play full season for the first time in 2020.
Defensively, he has played shortstop and second base. His raw power profile makes him standout as a middle infield prospect.
