Boston Red Sox left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez has been diagnosed with coronavirus and is “not feeling 100 percent,” according to manager Ron Roenicke.
Roenicke also announced Tuesday that third baseman Bobby Dalbec has tested positive for the virus.
Because of ace Chris Sale‘s season-ending Tommy John surgery and David Price’s departure to the Los Angeles Dodgers, Rodriguez was expected to take a lead role in Boston’s starting rotation this year.
Rodriguez, 27, enjoyed a breakthrough 2019 season and was one of the bright spots on the Red Sox staff, going 19-6 with a 3.81 ERA and 213 strikeouts. He posted career-bests in wins, ERA, strikeouts and innings (203.1).
