Out · expected back around Feb 1
Rodriguez is coming up on the one-year anniversary of his Tommy John surgery, and he's nearly ready to try things out in a game setting again. The Giants anticipate the hard-throwing reliever to be ready to go for spring training, and Rodriguez could be in the mix to close games in 2027 if he regains his pre-surgery form.

Latest news
The Giants transferred Rodriguez (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Friday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
The 24-year-old was placed on the injured list at the start of August due to right elbow neuritis, and he recently suffered a setback after starting up a minor-league rehab assignment. Rodriguez won't be eligible to be reinstated until after the end of the regular season, so his 2026 campaign can safely be considered finished since San Francisco is 25 games under. 500. He played in 22 games in his first taste of the majors this year and posted a .235/.316/.412 slash line with two homers and one steal in 58 plate appearances.

Rodriguez said Thursday that he's suffered a setback with his elbow neuritis, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Rodriguez began a rehab assignment at Triple-A on Sunday, but the Giants paused his assignment after one game due to the setback. He's scheduled to see a specialist within the next few days, and a clearer picture of his return timeline should emerge following his doctor's visit. In the meantime, Drew Cavanaugh and Andrew Knizner will continue to split reps behind the plate for the Giants.

Rodriguez (elbow) went 0-for-4 in Triple-A Sacramento's 3-1 loss to Tacoma on Sunday.
Before Sunday, Rodriguez hadn't played since July 31 due to right elbow neuritis. Although he failed to record a hit in his return to game action, he's trending in the right direction after beginning a rehab assignment. The Giants are plagued by injuries right now, and the versatile 24-year-old could carve out a steady role once he's reinstated.

Rodriguez (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Rodriguez has been out for all of August with right elbow neuritis, but he's been cleared to test things out in games. The 24-year-old shouldn't require too many rehab contests, and once he's reinstated the Giants are expected to use the utility player more in the infield than at catcher or in the outfield.

Rodriguez (elbow) will start a rehab assignment this week, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Rodriguez has been on the 10-day injured list since Aug. 1 due to right elbow neuritis, and he's ready to take the next step in his recovery program by playing in minor-league games. Per Pavlovic, the plan for Rodriguez is to see more work as an infielder once he's cleared to return from the IL.

The Giants placed Rodriguez on the 10-day injured list Saturday due to right elbow neuritis, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
The injury may have cropped up during Friday's game against the Padres, when he entered the game in the ninth inning as a pinch hitter for Bryce Eldridge. Rodriguez will be sidelined until at least mid-August, and in a corresponding move, the Giants recalled Nate Furman from Triple-A Sacramento.
