Rodriguez's contract was selected by the Mariners on Thursday.
Rodriguez will unsurprisingly be added to the 40-man roster to protect him from the upcoming Rule 5 draft. The 20-year-old advanced to Double-A Arkansas in 2021 and slashed .362/.461/.546 with seven homers, 35 runs, 26 RBI and 16 stolen bases. He'll likely be in the mix to make his major-league debut at some point in 2022.
