Jefry Rodriguez Fantasy Stats

The Cleveland Indians activated outfielder Tyler Naquin (calf, knee) from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday and placed starting pitcher Jefry Rodriguez (shoulder) on the injured list in a corresponding move with a right shoulder strain. Naquin had 25 hits in 90 at-bats (.278) with a homer, 10 RBI and three stolen bases before his injury. He could have value in deep mixed and AL-only leagues, but only if he sees regular at-bats in Cleveland's outfield. Rodriguez had been a shaky streaming option in deeper leagues with a 1-5 record, 4.74 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 32 strikeouts in his 43 2/3 innings over eight starts for the Tribe.

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Jefry Rodriguez (lat) left his start early on Saturday against the White Sox with a tight right lat muscle. He allowed one run on two hits in his four innings, striking out three and walking three in his 58 pitches. The 25-year-old has been up and down in his first season with the Tribe, posting a 4.74 ERA with 19 walks and 32 strikeouts in 43 2/3 innings. It's unclear if this injury will land Rodriguez on the injured list. He's merely a deep league streaming option when he's on the bump for the Indians.

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Jefry Rodriguez struggled on Monday, tossing just 4 1/3 innings while allowing seven runs (six earned) on eight hits and three walks. He struck out six while needing 101 pitches to get just 13 outs. The outing raised his ERA to 4.99 and dropped his record to 1-5. After a few solid outings, Rodriguez has had a hard time getting outs lately and he's unlikely to keep his rotation spot once Mike Clevinger (back) returns from the IL.

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Jefry Rodriguez only made it through four innings in Wednesday's start, allowing five runs (four earned) on seven hits and four walks. He struck out three and gave up a home run. The loss dropped Rodriguez to 1-4, but his 4.08 ERA is decent enough for a fill-in starter. He's fine every fifth day for Cleveland, but he shouldn't be rostered in most fantasy leagues.

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Jefry Rodriguez earned his first win on Sunday, pitching six innings and allowing three runs on six hits and three walks. He struck out three and allowed a home run, throwing 101 pitches (60 strikes). Rodriguez will head into his next start with a 2.92 ERA and he's been much better than expected so far.

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Jefry Rodriguez took a tough loss on Tuesday despite pitching his way to a quality start. In six innings, Rodriguez allowed just two runs on seven hits and three walks. He struck out six and despite allowing a lot of base runners, he was able to keep away from a big inning. The loss drops his record to 0-2, and he'll take a 2.41 ERA into his next start. He's a deeper league option, but most waiver wires should have a guy or two with a bit more upside.

Cleveland Indians pitcher Cody Anderson will make the start on Saturday against the Mariners, while Jefry Rodriguez will go on Tuesday against the White Sox as they fill in for Corey Kluber (elbow) and Mike Clevinger (back). Anderson has made three relief outings for the Tribe this year, posting a 5.40 ERA, 1.80 WHIP and 9.0 K/9 in just five innings. He could stick around in the rotation for a bit longer, but he's not a recommended streaming option this weekend because he's unlikely to last very long. Rodriguez has pitched well so far this year for the Indians and is a much more attractive streaming option in the short term.

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Jefry Rodriguez was excellent on Wednesday afternoon, tossing seven innings while allowing just one run on three hits and two walks. He struck out three and threw just 91 pitches. Rodriguez wasn't overpowering, but he kept the Marlins "offense" off balance and never really got into real trouble. He's filled in well for Mike Clevinger (back) so far, and should stay in the rotation as long as Clevinger is out. He's a low-upside fantasy piece, but could be useful in deeper formats if he keeps it up.

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Jefry Rodriguez has been recalled from Triple-A to make the start versus the Miami Marlins on Wednesday. Rodriguez pitched decent during his start on April 13, but probably isn't worth a look in most fantasy formats. The Marlins don't have much going for them on offense, but Rodriguez has a 5.46 career ERA.

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Jefry Rodriguez was solid on Saturday but took the loss. Filling in for the injured Mike Clevinger (back), Rodriguez pitched 5 2/3 innings, allowing two runs on five hits. He struck out three and did not issue a walk. Rodriguez likely pitched well enough in this one to get another turn in the rotation, but he doesn't have much upside. He might be a streaming candidate against a weak offense at best.
