Fantasy Impact

Rodriguez (1-0) allowed only a solo home run to Luis Robert, Jr. in the bottom of the first inning - the first earned run he allowed in his third start of the year. The veteran lefthander threw 102 pitches on the night and threw his final pitch of the night with the Diamondbacks still trailing, 1-0. However, Arizona's offense scored four in the top of the seventh to put Rodriguez in line for the win. He has had two disappointing seasons in the desert, but he is off to a great start to the 2026 season as he has given up just one earned run in 18 innings with an 11:5 K:BB ratio. Rodriguez will take his 0.50 ERA into his next start in Baltimore next week. He should be a popular addition for fantasy owners looking for pitching depth.

Eduardo Rodriguez went five innings in his season debut on Saturday and allowed one unearned run on four hits with two walks and five strikeouts in Arizona's 3-2 loss at the Dodgers.

Fantasy Impact

Rodriguez threw 79 pitches in his five innings with 50 of them for strikes. He pitched to one batter, who reached on an error, in the sixth that led to the unearned run he was charged with. He won 13 games with a 3.30 ERA in his last year in Detroit in 2023, but has gone 12-13 with a 5.02 ERA in 39 starts over two seasons with the Diamondbacks. While one start doesn't signify a resurgence, it was a great start to his season as he looks to bounce back from a couple of subpar years in the desert.

Eduardo Rodriguez will close out the Diamondbacks opening series against the Dodgers.
