Reds Call Up Power Hitting Rodríguez | Cincinnati Reds News

The Reds are calling up top prospect Héctor Rodríguez, a 22-year-old left-handed hitting outfielder with serious power, after trading away another player. In Triple-A, he’s slashed .274 with 27 homers and 69 RBIs in 104 games — now he’s ready to bring offensive firepower to the big league lineup. Originally signed by the Mets in 2021 and acquired via trade for Tyler Naquin in 2022, Rodríguez excels at the plate but still needs work defensively. Expected to start in right field, his arrival could sideline struggling Noelvi Marte — and maybe even lead to a DH role later. This is a major moment for the young slugger as he steps into MLB action. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
