With Adley Rutschman sidelined, Grayson Rodriguez outings are likely the top event that moves the needle on Baltimore’s farm. Fear not, I have good news.
Rodriguez took the ball and resembled his dominant self in his second start at Triple-A. Rodriguez worked five innings and picked up his first win at Norfolk. The O’s top pitching prospect allowed three hits, two runs and struck out eight. The first run came on a sacrifice fly in the second and the other came on a solo shot in the fifth. Rodriguez did not walk a batter.
