Red Sox announce Eduardo Rodriguez tested positive for COVID-19

Boston Red Sox pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez has tested positive for COVID-19.

What It Means:

Rodriguez was already in self-isolation after spending some time around someone who also recently tested positive. Expect Nathan Eovaldi to step in as Boston's Opening Day starter if Rodriguez were to miss any time.

For this upcoming 60-game season, Rodriguez's yearly projection includes a 4.13 ERA and 73 strikeouts in 67 innings pitched.
