Eduardo Rodriguez Getting The Ball Tuesday
1 year agoDetroit Tigers pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez will get the start Tuesday night as the club opens up a three-game set against the Los Angeles Angels. There's a real possibility this could be his final start in a Tigers uniform as E-Rod will be one of the more sought-after players leading up to the Aug. 1 MLB trade deadline given the season he's enjoying. The left-hander has been brilliant, turning in a career-best 2.63 ERA and 21.3% K-BB% across 14 starts and 83 2/3 innings of work. Rodriguez has surrendered two earned runs or fewer in 10 of his last 12 starts with one earned run or fewer yielded seven times in that stretch. He will take on an Angels offense that has been productive versus left-handed pitching, sitting in a share of fifth with a .337 wOBA against southpaws this season.
