  • Joely Rodriguez: Elects free agency

    Rodriguez elected free agency Thursday.

    Rodriguez stuck around in the Red Sox organization after being outrighted off their 40-man roster earlier this season, but this time around he's decided to exercise his right to free agency. The lefty will look for a spot in another organization for the stretch run.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Exits 40-man roster again

    The Red Sox designated Rodriguez for assignment Monday, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

    Rodriguez pitched in all three games of the team's weekend series against the Diamondbacks, giving up one run over 2.2 frames. The lefty cleared waivers and accepted an outright assignment to Triple-A Worcester back in April, and that could happen again.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Back with big club

    The Red Sox selected Rodriguez's contract from Triple-A Worcester on Friday, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.

    Rodriguez has allowed 12 runs (eight earned) with an 11:2 K:BB over 11 innings during his time with the big club this season. He'll provide manager Alex Cora with another left-handed relief option.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Clears waivers

    Rodriguez cleared waivers Wednesday and was sent outright to Triple-A Worcester, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

    Rodriguez was designated for assignment Sunday after posting a 6.55 ERA and 1.55 WHIP across 11 innings with the Red Sox. The 32-year-old southpaw will now officially remain with the organization, but he will not have the benefit of a 40-man roster spot and will likely need to show significant improvement in the minors before getting another shot in Boston.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Pushed off 40-man roster

    The Red Sox designated Rodriguez for assignment Sunday.

    Boston recalled right-hander Naoyuki Uwasawa from Triple-A Worcester in a corresponding move, but because Rodriguez doesn't have any minor-league options remaining, he was moved off the 40-man roster to make room on the 26-man active roster for Uwasawa. The lefty reliever has a decent track record at the big-league level, but he struggled in his 11 appearances with Boston so far this season, logging a 6.55 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 11:2 K:BB in 11 innings. It's unclear if Rodriguez will be a sought-after commodity on the waiver wire despite being on an affordable one-year, $1.5 million contract this season.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Blows save

    Rodriguez (0-1) took the loss and blew the save Saturday in the 10th inning of the Red Sox's loss to the Mariners, as he allowed three runs (two earned) on two hits while recording just one out, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

    Closer Kenley Jansen was unavailable due to back tightness, which allowed Rodriguez to step in for the save chance. Teammates Chris Martin, Greg Weissert and Isaiah Campbell had already pitched in the game. If Jansen goes on the IL, Martin would likely get first dibs on closing duties.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Cedes homer in opener

    Rodriguez allowed a run on one hit and struck out two over one inning to pick up his first hold of the season in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Mariners on Opening Day.

    Rodriguez, the lone lefty on the Red Sox staff, entered with a runner on in the seventh inning and allowed a two-run home run to pinch hitter Dylan Moore. Fortunately, Boston had a three-run lead at the time, and Rodriguez earned a hold. It was unclear from spring training how manager Alex Cora planned to deploy relievers outside of setup man Chris Martin and closer Kenley Jansen, but it appears Rodriguez will work higher-leverage situations to shepherd leads to the back-end duo.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Selected to MLB roster

    The Red Sox selected Rodriguez's contract from Triple-A Worcester on Thursday.

    Rodriguez will open the season as the lone lefty in Boston's bullpen. He was limited to just 11 appearances last season due to a hip injury but was healthy and effective this spring.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Nabs roster spot

    Rodriguez was informed Sunday that he made the Red Sox's Opening Day roster, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.

    Rodriguez re-signed with Boston as a non-roster invitee in February, and he pitched well during camp with a 2.57 ERA and 9:3 K:BB over seven innings. The left-hander was limited to 11 outings last season due to a hip injury.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Returns to Red Sox as NRI

    Rodriguez signed a minor-league contract with the Red Sox on Thursday that includes an invitation to spring training, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

    Boston declined Rodriguez's $4.25 million option in November, but the two sides have reunited and the journeyman southpaw will have a chance to win a job in camp. Oblique, shoulder and hip injuries limited Rodriguez to only 11 appearances last year, with his final appearance of the season coming July 25.

  • Joely Rodriguez: Option declined

    The Red Sox declined Rodriguez's (hip) $4.25 million option for 2024 on Saturday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

    Rodriguez will be paid a $500,000 buyout instead. The left-handed reliever was limited to just 11 appearances in 2023 due to oblique, shoulder and hip injuries. His season ended in mid-August because of the hip issue, and it's not clear what his current health situation is as he heads into free agency.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Shut down from throwing

    Rodriguez has been shut down from throwing due to recurring pain in his right hip, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

    Rodriguez has been on the injured list since the end of July, and manager Alex Cora said there's a chance Rodriguez's setback could keep him sidelined for the rest of the season. A clearer return timeline should emerge as Rodriguez recovers, but he will not be pitching in games anytime soon.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: To IL with hip inflammation

    Rodriguez was placed on the 15-day injured list Monday with right hip inflammation.

    Rodriguez had a streak of six straight appearances without giving up a run, striking out nine over seven innings across that stretch. Joe Jacques was recalled to take Rodriguez's place in the bullpen.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Heading to injured list

    Rodriguez will be placed on the 15-day injured list with right hip tightness Monday, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.

    Rodriguez has missed significant time with injuries this year, as he was unavailable for the start of the regular season due to an oblique strain before missing just over a month with a shoulder issue. He returned to action in early July and tossed seven scoreless innings over six appearances, but he'll now head back to the injured list due to a hip injury. However, manager Alex Cora downplayed the severity of Rodriguez's current injury and said he might be able to return after missing the minimum of 15 days.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Returns from injured list

    Rodriguez (shoulder) was activated off the injured list Saturday, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

    Rodriguez has missed nearly the entire season, first with an oblique strain and then with a shoulder injury. He got into five games in between the two ailments, giving up eight earned runs in four innings while striking out five and walking six. Justin Garza was optioned to clear space on the roster.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Set for rehab appearance Thursday

    Rodriguez (shoulder) will make a rehab appearance for Double-A Portland on Thursday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    Rodriguez will pitch on the road against New Hampshire. The left-hander has made three total rehab appearances while recovering from his left shoulder inflammation, and if things go well Thursday, there's a chance he could rejoin the Boston bullpen over the weekend.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Continuing rehab assignment

    Rodriguez (shoulder) will make at least one more rehab appearance before being activated from the injured list, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    Rodriguez struggled in his first two rehab outings at Triple-A Worcester before striking out three of the four total batters he faced there Sunday in a scoreless frame. He's been sidelined since the beginning of June due to left shoulder inflammation.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Begins rehab assignment

    Rodriguez (shoulder) is beginning a rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Worcester, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

    Rodriguez had allowed nine runs -- eight earned -- through four major-league innings on the year prior to hitting the injured list June 1 with left shoulder inflammation. He'll probably need to log a strings of successful outings on the farm before the Red Sox consider activating him.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Throwing simulated game

    Rodriguez (shoulder) is throwing a simulated game Friday at Fenway Park, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

    It'll be a big step forward in Rodriguez's recovery from a bout of left shoulder inflammation, which has kept him sidelined since June 1. He could feasibly return to the Red Sox bullpen by early next week, but he has struggled in limited action this year and figures to be sent out on a minor-league rehab assignment prior to being activated.

  • Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Lands on injured list

    Rodriguez was placed on the 15-day injured list Sunday, retroactive to June 1, with left shoulder inflammation, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

    The injury was initially deemed a biceps issue after he tweaked something while warming up for Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader, but it's now been diagnosed as shoulder inflammation. Rodriguez will be eligible to return June 16, though it's unclear if he'll be healthy by that point.
