Padres' Fernando Rodriguez: Gets minors deal from San Diego
Fernando Rodriguez signed a minor-league contract with the San Diego Padres, Matt Eddy of Baseball America reports.Rodriguez has 216 career relief appearances to his name at the MLB level but hasn't surfaced in the big leagues since 2016. He required shoulder surgery that same season and was sidelined for most of 2017 before pitching exclusively for the Red Sox's Triple-A affiliate in 2018, delivering a 3.20 ERA and 1.18 WHIP across 64.2 innings. The 34-year-old is expected to open the upcoming campaign in the minors but could get a look in the San Diego bullpen at some point.

Red Sox's Fernando Rodriguez: Sent to minors camp
Fernando Rodriguez was reassigned to the Boston Red Sox's minor-league camp Sunday.Rodriguez, who last appeared in the majors in 2016 with the Athletics, was sidelined for much of the 2017 campaign while recovering from shoulder surgery. The 33-year-old still looked a little rusty in the Grapefruit League with a 9.00 ERA and 1.63 WHIP over eight innings, so he'll need to prove healthy and effective in the upper minors before getting a serious look from the Red Sox.

Cubs' Fernando Rodriguez: Back from MiLB DL
Fernando Rodriguez (shoulder) has allowed two runs on three hits over three innings since returning from the disabled list with Triple-A Iowa.Rodriguez had been out all year due to shoulder surgery he underwent back in September, but he seems to be back at 100 percent after a shaky first outing.

Cubs' Fernando Rodriguez: Sent to minors Tuesday
Fernando Rodriguez (shoulder) was reassigned to minor league camp Tuesday, Gordon Wittenmyer of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.Manager Joe Maddon's reasoning behind the move was simply to get him more work, and given that Rodriguez is still working through a modified throwing program following surgery on his lat in September, this isn't too surprising. It's unclear how close the right-hander is to returning to game action, but that should become clearer as spring training progresses.

Athletics' Fernando Rodriguez: Outrighted to Triple-A on Thursday
Fernando Rodriguez (shoulder) was outrighted to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday.The Oakland Athletics made a slew of roster moves to clear space on the 40-man roster, and given the fact that Rodriguez isn't expected to pick up a baseball for another few months, they decided to leave him off the 40-man roster. The 32-year-old struggled in the big leagues this season, posting a 4.20 ERA out of the Oakland bullpen, so he'll likely act as organizational pitching depth going forward.
