Texas Rangers reliever Joely Rodriguez has a sprained ankle and is "a bit behind schedule," per Levi Weaver of The Athletic. (Levi Weaver on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Weaver also mentioned that Rodriguez, among others, is dealing with a minor visa issue, which has also delayed his arrival to camp. Rodriguez missed a good chunk of the 2020 season with lat and hamstring injuries that both required IL stints. He did perform well whenever he was able to pitch, though, registering a 2.13 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, and 17 punch outs over 12 2/3 innings. He has plenty of time to get right before the start of the regular season and he has a good chance to be named the closer with Demarcus Evans injuring his lat.
