Labors in no-decision
Rodriguez did not factor into the decision in Friday's 7-6 loss to the Royals, allowing three runs on three hits and two walks with five strikeouts over four innings.
Analysis
Rodriguez allowed runs in the second and third innings, throwing just 53 of 89 total pitches for strikes with 12 whiffs. Despite exceeding 80 pitches for the sixth straight start, he lasted just four innings for the fourth time in seven outings since returning from the injured list July 10. The 26-year-old owns a 7.17 ERA, 1.59 WHIP and 55:28 K:BB across 59 innings this season and lines up for a road matchup with the Astros next week.

Mixed results in loss
Rodriguez (3-5) took the loss against the Marlins on Sunday, allowing four runs (three earned) on four hits and four walks with eight strikeouts over four innings.
Analysis
Rodriguez allowed three runs in the first inning and struggled with his control, throwing just 47 of 83 pitches for strikes and issuing four walks. On the other hand, he generated an impressive 15 whiffs and tallied a season-high eight punchouts. It comes on the heels of consecutive two-run outings from the 26-year-old, who's been unable to register a win in five starts since the All-Star break. He'll take a 7.20 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and 50:26 K across 55 innings this season into a home matchup with the Royals next weekend.
