Pirates Prospects Player of the Month for August: Endy Rodriguez

In the last four months, we have had two Player of the Month winners. Matt Gorski destroyed the ball for the majority of May and June en route to back-to-back Player of the Month nods. In July, Endy Rodriguez took a decent first half of the season to another level. He put up a 1.253 OPS in 94 plate appearances, which including a .373 average, 23 runs, six doubles, eight homers, 21 RBIs and 17 walks (with only 11 strikeouts). He started the month of August in Greensboro, but after four games, including a five-hit game, he got promoted to Altoona.
