Richard Rodriguez Continues His Dominance
4 years agoThe Pittsburgh Pirates and Richard Rodriguez continued their winning ways on Tuesday by picking up the 2-1 win over the Kansas City Royals. The Bucco's closer was dominant once again and extended his scoreless streak to start this season to both double-digit games and innings pitched. He has masterfully allowed only one lone hit which was an Eric Hosmer single and one lone walk to Joc Pederson across his entire 2021 season. Simply unhittable and now featuring a 0.00 ERA with an unreal 0.19 WHIP, Rodriguez is shockingly among the most dominant relievers in baseball. His 1.93 ERA and 0.67 WHIP combined between 2020 and 2021 certainly proves he has performed at an elite level over a larger sample size as well. Pittsburgh may not end up winning many games but they will win enough close games that Rodriguez should be a Top 10 reliever for the rest of the fantasy season.
