When the Wandy Rodriguez trade first went down, I wasn’t a big fan of the deal. Rodriguez had been struggling with the Astros in the two months leading up to the trade, and had seen his strikeouts dropping in each of the last few seasons. Simply put, he wasn’t the same pitcher he...

First Pitch: The New Wandy Rodriguez Making Last Summer’s Trade Look Good

When the Pittsburgh Pirates acquired Wandy Rodriguez last year at the trade deadline, I wasn’t a fan of the move. For one, I really liked Robbie Grossman’s upside. I also didn’t think Rodriguez was the same pitcher he was a few years ago.
From 2008-2010, Rodriguez combined for a 3.36 ERA, along with...

Pirates left-hander Wandy Rodriguez says he will miss his scheduled start Sunday against the Reds because of a strained left hamstring.
''I can throw on it, I can walk on it and I can run on it but the one thing I can't do yet is push off of it when I try to pitch,'' Rodriguez said Saturday. ''It's getting a lot better and I don't think I'...

1-5: Wandy Rodriguez
1. I’ve been very critical of Pirates’ GM Neal Huntington over the past year, but I was impressed with last week’s SP Wandy Rodriguez trade with Houston. While other clubs were still jockeying with the Cubs for Ryan Dempster, and waiting to see if the Phillies...
Pirates pick up Left Hander Wandy Rodriguez from the Astros
The Pirates made a move yesterday to add depth to their pitching rotation. In a four player deal the Pirates traded for Houston Left Hander Wandy Rodriguez. Rodriguez is 7-9 this season with a 3.79 ERA.
The Pirates gave up three of their top 16 prospects in the deal. Pitchers Rudy Owens and Cotton Cain are headed to Houston a long with the Pirates Outfielder Robbie Grossman...
Rodriguez has new title, same approach
HOUSTON By simply stalling Dodgers center fielder Matt Kemp from his frightening tear through the National League, Astros right-hander Wandy Rodriguez warranted any number of backslaps and handshakes.
The seven shutout innings Rodriguez tossed on Sunday were gratuitous.
Rodriguez insisted that nothing has changed beyond his assuming the title of staff ace. His simplified approach...
