Rodriguez Out for Season After Hip Surgery | Pittsburgh Pirates News

Endy Rodriguez’s season is over after hip surgery, sidelining him for 7-9 months and possibly missing next year’s start. Already limited to just 45 games due to prior injuries — a glute strain and hip inflammation — Rodriguez showed star potential when healthy, hitting seven homers with strong exit velocity. Now the Pirates face a catcher logjam, relying on Rafael Flores (offensive) and Henry Davis (defensive), which likely influenced their late-season trade for veteran Christian Bethancourt. All eyes are now on Rodriguez’s rehab — fingers crossed for a smooth recovery and a full return. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
