Seeking second opinion on hip injury Pirates director of sports medicine Todd Tomczyk said Monday that Rodriguez is gathering a second opinion on his left hip injury, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette repor...

Impact Pittsburgh listed Rodriguez's injury as left hip inflammation when he was placed on the shelf Thursday, but the organization may be concerned that the 26-year-old catcher might be dealing with something more significant. While Tomczyk relayed that the Pirates are expected to have more information on Rodriguez's condition later this week, it's reasonable to expect Rodriguez to spend more than the minimum 10 days on the injured list. Henry Davis and Rafael Flores will continue to share playing time behind the dish while Rodriguez is on the mend.

Placed on IL with hip injury The Pirates placed Rodriguez on the 10-day injured list Thursday with left hip inflammation.

Impact Rodriguez hasn't played in almost a week, and he was unable to show enough progress over that time to avoid a stint on the IL. He will be eligible to return late next week, but it's unclear whether Rodriguez might be ready for activation at that time. Henry Davis and Rafael Flores will handle the catching duties for the Pirates while Rodriguez is shelved.

AUGUST 13 • ROTOWIRE

Remains out Thursday Rodriguez (hip) remains out of the lineup for Thursday's game in Miami.

Impact Rodriguez hasn't played in nearly a week as he continues to battle left hip discomfort. The Pirates have been viewing the injury as a day-to-day situation, but the longer Rodriguez's absence drags on, the likelier a stint on the injured list becomes. Rafael Flores will start at catcher Thursday.

AUGUST 13 • ROTOWIRE

Missing out on fifth straight start Rodriguez (hip) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

Impact Rodriguez will be relegated to the bench for a fifth consecutive game while he contends with left hip discomfort. Henry Davis will get another start at catcher in place of Rodriguez, whom the Pirates are viewing as day-to-day.

AUGUST 12 • ROTOWIRE

Out again Tuesday Rodriguez (hip) is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against Miami.

Impact Rodriguez will sit out his fourth consecutive game as he continues to manage his left hip discomfort. Once again, Henry Davis will be behind the plate and bat ninth for Pittsburgh.

AUGUST 11 • ROTOWIRE

Missing out on another start Rodriguez (hip) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

Impact Rodriguez will receive a third straight game off while he tends to left hip discomfort. Henry Davis will draw another start behind the plate in place of Rodriguez, who is considered day-to-day.

Scratched Saturday Rodriguez was scratched from the lineup for Saturday's game against the Mets, Danny Demilio of PittsburghBaseballNow.com reports.

Impact The Pirates should provide an explanation as to why Rodriguez was removed from the lineup in the near future. In the meantime, Henry Davis will start behind the plate and bat ninth.

AUGUST 8 • ROTOWIRE

Exiting starting lineup Rodriguez is absent from the lineup for Friday's tilt against the Mets.

Impact Rodriguez had made five consecutive starts (three at catcher, one apiece and first base and designated hitter), but he'll begin Friday's series opener on the bench. Rafael Flores is behind the plate for the Pirates.

AUGUST 7 • ROTOWIRE

Goes yard again Rodriguez went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Brewers.

Impact Rodriguez has hit safely in seven of eight games since he returned from a glute injury. He's also homered in consecutive contests, giving him seven long balls on the year. The catcher is batting .269 with an .856 OPS, 20 RBI, 20 runs scored, six doubles and six stolen bases over 153 plate appearances. Henry Davis has hit just .206 since the All-Star break, so it looks like Rodriguez will continue to push the Pirates' catching situation into at least a timeshare.

Pops sixth homer Rodriguez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Tuesday against the Brewers.

Impact Rodriguez led off the fifth inning with a home run, his sixth of the season and first since the All-Star break. He's managed to hit .296 across seven games in that span, including two RBI and four runs scored. Despite the decent showing of late, Rodriguez may not have regular playing time because the return of Spencer Horwitz will limit Rodriguez's opportunity to start at first base.

Sitting down Saturday Rodriguez isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Reds.

Impact Rodriguez has notched a hit in all four of his games since returning from the injured list Monday, but he'll retreat to the bench to begin Saturday's contest. Henry Davis will handle catching duties and bat ninth.

AUGUST 1 • ROTOWIRE

Suddenly active on bases Rodriguez went 1-for-3 with a walk and two stolen bases Thursday against the Reds.

Impact Rodriguez drew his second start since returning from the injured list and turned in another productive performance. He's stolen three bases in that span, giving him a total of four for the season. Rodriguez has gone 3-for-11 in total since being activated, and he should continue to serve as Pittsburgh's top option behind the plate.

JULY 31 • ROTOWIRE

Absent from lineup Rodriguez is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Diamondbacks.

Impact The Pirates have eased Rodriguez back into action following his return from the injured list earlier this week, as this will be his second time on the bench in three contests. Rodriguez should eventually retake the primary catcher job, but it will be Henry Davis behind the dish in Wednesday's series finale.

JULY 29 • ROTOWIRE

One hit in return to lineup Rodriguez went 1-for-6 with an RBI, a run scored and a stolen base Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Rodriguez returned from the injured list Monday, but Tuesday marked his first start. He contributed to a late rally with an RBI single in the eighth inning, though he also struck out three times. While Henry Davis will still get some starts, Rodriguez is likely to return to his role as Pittsburgh's primary catcher moving forward.
