Diamondbacks' Eduardo Rodriguez: Short outing Saturday

Rodriguez allowed four hits and two walks while striking out three over 4.2 scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Padres on Saturday.

Rodriguez failed to complete five innings for the fourth time over six starts in September. He was pulled at 62 pitches (41 strikes) Saturday, and it was likely due to him pitching into a jam that Kevin Ginkel was able to escape from. Rodriguez concludes the regular season with a 5.04 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 47:19 K:BB over 50 innings across 10 starts. It's unclear whether Rodriguez would work as a starter or a reliever if the Diamondbacks are able to make the playoffs.
