The Padres selected Rodriguez's contract from Double-A San Antonio on Friday.

Rodriguez will make the jump from Double-A directly to the big leagues after posting a 3.22 ERA and 0.90 WHIP alongside a 31:5 K:BB across 22.1 innings at San Antonio. He'll replace Kyle Hart in the Padres' bullpen and is likely to work in middle relief to begin his MLB career.
