Dodgers fans are likely more familiar with the name “Julio Rodriguez” following the rookie’s impressive display during last month’s Home Run Derby at Dodger Stadium. The All-Star rookie for the Mariners has been taking the league by storm this season. While his numbers aren’t eye-popping, he’s quickly becoming a thing of legend around Seattle. So much so that when you say Julio in the great northeast, people know exactly who you’re talking about.
J Rod recently sat down for a one-on-one interview where he answered questions from Twitter. One of his answers involved Dodgers’ top pitching prospect Ryan Pepiot, a pitcher Rodriguez holds in high regard.
