Manuel Rodríguez's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Minnesota Twins outfield prospect Emmanuel Rodriguez (thumb) was placed on Triple-A St. Paul's injured list with a right-thumb sprain. Rodriguez, the team's No. 2 prospect per MLB Pipeline, has been limited to 47 games in the minors and 209 plate appearances this year due to injuries. In those 47 games in the Florida Complex League and with Single-A Fort Myers, Double-A Wichita and St. Paul, the 21-year-old has hit .280/.459/.567 with a 1.026 OPS, nine home runs, 27 RBI and nine stolen bases. His thumb injury initially cropped up in April, and he just hasn't been able to get over it all year. There's no denying Rodriguez's production and his intrigue due to a left-handed swing that produces plenty of raw power, but he has missed out on key developmental time this year. Still, if he can stay healthy in 2025, Rodriguez could be on the fast track to making his MLB debut.

Minnesota Twins outfield prospect Emmanuel Rodriguez (thumb) was placed on the 7-day injured list on June 7 and remains sidelined at Double-A Wichita. Rodriguez was having a nice season at Wichita with a .298 average, eight home runs, and 20 RBI to go with a 1.100 OPS. He has added nine stolen bases. The No. 3 prospect in the Twins' system has shown good plate discipline (46 strikeouts, 40 walks) and possesses 60-grade power. Unfortunately, the injury has stalled some of his progress but he could still be looking at a promotion to Triple-A at some point this season. The 21-year-old is likely looking at 2025 for a major-league debut but his hitting profile makes him one of the top young outfielders for fantasy purposes.

Minnesota Twins outfield prospect Emmanuel Rodriguez tallied three hits on Thursday, including a home run, which extended his current hitting streak to four games. Since May 14, Rodriguez has posted a stellar .379/.550/.828 line with three long balls and an 11:6 BB:K ratio. This is a great sign as the 21-year-old is beginning to look quite comfortable in his first extended look at Double-A pitching. The number three prospect in the Minnesota system is not projected to reach the majors until next season, but that could change due to his recent surge in the batter's box. Dynasty managers should pay close attention to him as he could be earning a Triple-A promotion in the coming months, which could set him up for an opportunity to join the Twins in the stretch run.
