Scouting Report

2025

Scouting grades: Hit: 55 | Power: 40 | Run: 40 | Arm: 55 | Field: 45 | Overall: 45

Signed for just $10,000 out of Venezuela in 2018, Rodriguez hit .294 or better in each of his six seasons in the Yankees' system. He never found a defensive home, however, bouncing between catcher, third base and the outfield corners. When the Giants traded Camilo Doval to New York this July, they regarded Rodriguez as the biggest prize in the four-prospect package they received in return.

Rodriguez has quality bat-to-ball skills and produces quality exit velocities, though they're mitigated by an extremely aggressive approach. A right-handed hitter, he chases all types of pitches out of the zone, resulting in a lot of suboptimal ground-ball contact. He's capable of hitting the ball out to the opposite field -- four of his 10 homers last year went to right field -- but he'll probably top out at 12-15 homers per season unless he gets more selective.

Rodriguez would maximize his value if he can catch on a regular basis, and San Francisco believes he can. He struggles as a receiver at times and needs more reps behind the plate, though he does move OK and has solid arm strength and a quick release. First base may be his only other viable option because he lacks range in left field and struggles with the speed of the game at third base.
