Single-A St. Lucie placed Rodriguez on its 60-day injured list Aug. 11 with an unspecified injury.
Rodriguez missed most of the first two months of the season while finishing up his recovery from March 2022 Tommy John surgery before he was cleared to begin a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Florida Complex League on June 21. He was activated by St. Lucie a month later and made only two appearances in the Florida State League before being shut down again. Since he last pitched for St. Lucie on July 27, his move to the 60-day IL means he won't be eligible to pitch again for the affiliate during the 2023 season.

Mets' Luis Rodriguez: Makes 2023 debut
Rotowire
Rodriguez (elbow) made his season debut Wednesday for the Mets' rookie-level Florida Complex League affiliate, tossing a scoreless frame while giving up one hit and no walks.
The appearance was Rodriguez's first in affiliated ball since the 2021 campaign, after he missed the entirety of last season and the early part of the current season while recovering from March 2022 Tommy John surgery. Prior to having the elbow procedure, Rodriguez finished the 2021 season at Single-A St. Lucie, so he could eventually rejoin the Mets' Florida State League affiliate once he makes a few more appearances at the rookie-ball level.
