Marlins' Sean Rodriguez: Placed on injured list
Sean Rodriguez was placed on the 10-day injured list for an undisclosed reason Tuesday, Jared Diamond of The Wall Street Journal reports.The Miami Marlins didn't provide a reason for Tuesday's move, and if his absence is related to the team's COVID-19 outbreak, the team wouldn't legally be allowed to say so without Rodriguez's permission. The 35-year-old hadn't appeared in any of the Marlins' first three games this season, and it's unclear when he'll return to the field. Rodriguez hit .223/.348/.375 with 24 runs, 12 RBI and 41 strikeouts over 76 appearances with the Phillies last year.

Marlins' Sean Rodriguez: Contract selected by Marlins
Sean Rodriguez's contract was selected by the Miami Marlins on Friday.Rodriguez was assigned to Miami's alternate camp Thursday but will be part of the Opening Day roster after all in place of Jorge Alfaro, who was placed on the injured list for undisclosed reasons in a corresponding move. Rodriguez's defensive versatility is his greatest asset, as he appeared everywhere except catcher in limited action for the Phillies last season, but he doesn't do a ton with his bat. He's a lifetime .226/.302/.380 hitter who's produced an above-average batting line in just one of his 12 big-league seasons.

Marlins' Sean Rodriguez: Will join Miami's player pool
Sean Rodriguez, who was released by the Miami Marlins over the weekend, will re-sign with the club and is set to be included in the team's 60-man roster pool, Craig Mish of SportsGrid.com reports.Miami's roster pool currently sits at 57 members, but the team has since filled two of the remaining three spots with the additions of reliever Nick Vincent and Rodriguez, who both likely have agreements in place on minor-league deals. Before spring training was suspended in mid-March, Rodriguez was already a candidate to break camp with the club as a member of the 26-man Opening Day roster, and the expanded roster size coupled with his ability to play all over the infield and outfield should only bolster his chances of sticking around with Miami for the duration of 2020.
