The Pope John Paul II product plays with a high motor and that was evident last Friday against Fontainebleau. Rodriguez uses a quiet and balanced set-up with hands right at shoulder height to deliver a direct path to contact with level extension. He showed a knack for getting the barrel to the ball and also looked confident on the dirt with crisp actions, as he made some routine plays and made a nice bounder play. Rodriguez is a good uncommitted junior middle-infielder for college recruiters to circle to see this spring.
