Sean Rodriguez

The Pirates have designated Sean Rodriguez for assignment. They have also activated Jordy Mercer from the 10-day DL.

Fantasy Impact

Rodriguez has seven days to either be traded, released, or placed on irrevocable waivers. He didn't have much fantasy value but is a decent utility player.

Sean Rodriguez entered Saturday's game in the ninth inning as a pinch-hitter. He hit an RBI single and later scored on a double by Colin Moran.

Fantasy Impact

This is Rodriguez's second pinch-hit appearance since coming off the DL Friday, but his first hit. He could see some playing time with Josh Harrison dealing with a hamstring injury.

The Pirates have activated Sean Rodriguez from the 10-day disabled list. Michael Feliz was optioned to Triple-A Indy.

Fantasy Impact

Rodriguez was out for over two weeks with an abdominal strain. He's batting .163 with five home runs, 18 RBI, and 20 runs in 63 games this year.

Sean Rodriguez went 3-for-4 driving in four runs on Friday against the Reds.

Fantasy Impact

Rodriguez had a monster day at the plate, with three hits, including a home run and four RBI. He got the start at second in place of Harrison who has struggled this season. It will be interesting to see if this is a sign of things to come or just a day off. Either way, it is hard to ignore Rodriguez when he has days like these.

Sean Rodriguez went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts against Arizona on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Rodriguez got a spot start at shortstop on Sunday but failed to produce offensively. He holds value as a super utility player for the Pirates in real life but holds no fantasy value.
