The Twins promoted Rodriguez from Double-A Wichita to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Rodriguez recently returned from a right thumb strain by appearing in a rehab game with Single-A Fort Myers over the weekend, and he'll now come off Wichita's injured list and move up to the Twins' top minor-league affiliate. The 21-year-old has been excellent this season when healthy, slashing .298/.479/.621 with eight home runs, nine stolen bases and a 46:42 K:BB over 37 games with Wichita. Rodriguez is already on the Twins' 40-man roster, but he's unlikely to push for a promotion to the majors until 2025.
