Rodríguez, who quickly won over the Aguilas fans in his first experience in LIDOM, is saying goodbye to the tournament after leaving numbers that made him one of the most impactful figures of the championship.
In 19 games, he recorded a batting average of .292, an OBP of .417, an OPS of 1.063, as well as 4 home runs, 11 RBIs and 3 stolen bases. Considered the number 4 prospect of the Minnesota organization and projected to debut in MLB in 2026, the Twins prefer to reduce risks due to their injury history, thus preserving their health for next year. The eagle leader, Luis “Pipe” Urueta, explained this Wednesday on the program Abriendo Sports that the decision responds to the natural process of Major League prospects.
Urueta added that other high-profile young players are also close to concluding their cycle in the tournament, including Adael Amador and Ángel Genao. Rodríguez's departure represents a significant blow for the Cibao team, which loses one of its most productive bats and one of the most promising figures in the entire circuit.
