RHP TJ Rodriguez (Grayslake Central, IL; 2026) has a strong and sturdy frame which measured at 6-foot-1, 191 pounds. He threw from an athletic and dynamic delivery using his lower half efficiently to get down the mound. He displayed a quick arm and a running fastball with good finish through the zone which sat in the lower 80’s. He paired his fastball with a short and quick lateral breaking slider and a change up out of the same window as his other two offerings. Rodriguez certainly has some upside and is an interesting follow as he develops.
