Avila: Tigers Have Not Had Recent Contact With Eduardo Rodriguez

By Anthony Franco | July 6, 2022 at 7:47pm CDT

Eduardo Rodríguez has been away from the Tigers for nearly a month, as the club placed the starter on the restricted list on June 13. Detroit announced at the time he was attending to personal matters, which Jon Heyman of the New York Post subsequently reported was a marital concern. There was no timetable for his return at the time, and it seemingly remains up in the air when he’ll be back with the club.

Speaking with reporters this afternoon, Detroit general manager Al Avila stated the team hasn’t heard from Rodríguez recently (link via Cody Stavenhagen of the Athletic). “We reached out, but obviously he hasn’t reached out back. We’re just kind of waiting it out,” Avila said. “It is unusual, but we have no choice but to wait it out right now and see how it develops as we move forward.”

Manager A.J. Hinch offered a similar report last week. “From what I know, there’s been no movement whatsoever and no communication,” Hinch said at the time. “We know he’s safe, we know he’s home with his kids, we know he’s back in Florida, but it’s been pretty quiet.”

As part of an aggressive offseason, the Tigers added Rodríguez on a five-year, $77MM free agent contract last November. The deal also affords the southpaw an opportunity to opt-out following the 2023 campaign. He made eight starts over the season’s first couple months, working to a 4.38 ERA through 39 innings. Rodríguez landed on the injured list on May 22 with a ribcage strain; he’d been on a minor league rehab assignment working his way back from the injury at the time he stepped away from the club.

Players on the restricted list are not paid, so Rodríguez is forfeiting salary for any time he spends away from the team. Avila declined to answer when asked if the Tigers would look into the possibility of attempting to void his contract entirely. “I’m not going to get into that at this point. Obviously that’s a situation, it’s a private situation right now on his part. I won’t get into that.“

    I hope he’s okay. While in Boston, E-Rod definitely marched to the beat of his own drum, but he always showed up for work and gave his best effort when on the mound. He just didn’t take to coaching all that well (for a couple of years anyways). The fact that he hasn’t spoken to the team in nearly a month is very concerning. Marital troubles can be tough on a player (just ask Ben Zobrist) but it’s not an excuse to go dark on your team. There could be more going on here; I hope the team continues to do wellness checks on him. I also hope he has the support he needs at home from extended family and is not just wallowing alone in his sorrows. That can lead to some very bad outcomes. Get well soon, E-Rod and keep your head up.

          The trolling aspect is commenters assuming this player is just being a jerk and completely neglecting the possibility that something very serious is going on in his life. Yes, he still shouldn’t go dark on the team but he’s human. Marital problems could mean anything from simple arguing to a spouse having a terminal illness so a small degree of sensitivity would be nice.

          “Sounds like you are trying to position yourself as superior to feel better about yourself”. Does calling someone a clubhouse cancer make you feel better yourself? Do you log off your computer, smug in the belief that “my job is done, I made the world a better place by putting people in their place” on some anonymous message board? Have you actually been in a clubhouse? Have you known anyone that’s had cancer?

          Where in the post is someone defining someone as a troll for not “sharing your or a majority opinion.” Read the post again. Perhaps more slowly since you sorta kinda blew past the entire point.

        Fact: Tigers signed him to a $77,000,000.00 contract. Fact: Tigers allowed him to leave the team to take care of personal business during the season. Fact: He hasn’t contacted his employer since. Fact: phone, text, zoom, his agent, even public forums like Twitter, are all available to him to communicate with. What facts do you feel need to still be gathered?

        It’s situational. I’ve personally know of a C-suite exec of a major corporation (which most people would be familiar with) taking months off to go into rehab. And it has happened more than once. Extraordinary talent is very hard to replace and Rodriguez is in the top .00001% of the population, give or take a few zeros.

          To be fair, the “leave of absence” isn’t so much the issue as the non contact is. Also, small point but there is a big difference between getting fired from a regular job and one where you are under contract. Small point, big difference, if that makes any sense.

      Unseemly and callous? Nice virtue signaling. He’s not reading this article, and if he is, that proves he could respond to the team. So that voids your point either way. You’re always making comments like you have special insight.
      Anyone with common sense and a modicum of insight can see he doesn’t want to be here.
      If he keeps pitching, he’s stuck here. If he demands a trade, he’s a cancer. If he does nothing, he might get his contract voided and able to sign with another team.
      There’s a reason why no contending team outbid the Tigers.
      And by the way, I’m an extremely compassionate person, but I know BS when I hear it. I know how to critically think, and understand nuance. I question myself and the world very deeply. I also have the self awareness to understand I could say the popular thing and signal what a great guy I am or I can say the honest thing that people don’t want to hear. Unfortunately, we live in a society where it’s more important to score social capital than stand up for the truth or bother to seek it.

    Maybe I’m taking it too literally, but Hinch said “kids,” not “wife” or “family.” Did she abandon her family, leaving E-Rod no choice but to care for his kids? Man, that would be tough. But the agent needs to update the Tigers (but not the public).

    For context, so far he’s forfeited around $2.5M and he’s about to forfeit another $1M or so if he skips another pay period for the year, or about $3.5M of his $14M salary.

    He’s “only” or already made about $5.833M through the day he went on the restricted list, of his $14M salary for this season.

    So if he came back in the next pay period he’d wind up making about $10.5M for the season. Not bad for taking a month and a half off…

    That said, if he’s forfeiting all this money and potentially forfeiting the rest of the $8M or so left on this season’s salary or the rest of the 71.7M left overall on the deal, there’s obviously something seriously wrong that may need intervention by someone.

    Not because money matters more than other things but giving up on your career at this level is an indicator of something very seriously wrong.

    I’m sorry, but I think it’s naive to think he’s in peril. If he was, I promise you the media would be all over it. When his agent won’t communicate, that should tell you something is up. That, coupled with marital issues coming up the minute he’s set to come back doesn’t add up. Marital issues is pretty vague, and if anything a brake from a spouse would make sense.
    Even if things were terrible, he could take 1 minute to text the team.

      A greater possibility is that you are an idiot. He should communicate with the Tigers, but owes you (or me) no explanation. Other than that, give the man some space.

      What is this theory based on?

        It’s not a theory it’s a “possibility”. Also, likely a poor attempt at humor.

    Reminds me of when the White Sox “lost” Bartolo Colon years ago, and Ozzie Guillen said something to the effect of “did you check the buffet line?”

    Teams generally know more than they put out in public.

      The buffet line seemed to serve Bartolo quite well for a very long career.

    Rodriguez is a odd character and baseball players are like the general public and several of them go through divorces or relationship problems throughout a season. If he’s down in Florida there is no reason why he isn’t rehabbing at the Lakeland Tigers complex and dealing with his family issues. The Tigers signed him to be the GUY that helps lead this pitching staff and I think Eduardo realizes that he can’t handle the pressure of that.

    My guess is he’s in a rehab or detox program.

    Anyone giving E-Rod grief for taking this time out to be with his family should think if it was them in that situation. But all the questions about whether the Tigers can void his deal are legit and there is nothing wrong with bringing that up. I know if I left my employer for over a month with no communication back and forth, I would be gone. Why should the same not apply?

    I wonder if it’s the WIFE who is having some sort of serious physical or mental problem and he’s taking care of the kids? Nobody has ever voiced that opinion. Still seems odd there isn’t some family member who could handle that sort of thing . It’s summer so the kids probably aren’t in school so that could also be an issue.

      He lives in Venezuela, their school year is opposite of ours. Remember he was late reporting because of VISA issues. If he is with his kids he would be in Venezuela not Florida.

    The funny thing is everyone in here is taking this issue so personally like they know exactly what is going on, if they know he is in Florida then clearly they have taps on him. This isn’t the same as your work at Walmart where they fired you for not showing up. He is not getting paid so what’s the big deal? Clearly money isn’t everything for him, something people don’t understand in here.

      The big deal is that he made a commitment to the Tigers and he’s putting them in a bind.

      Not only are they taking it personally but people are going out of their way like one fatuous poster who’s calling him a “clubhouse cancer”. I’ve got no dog in the fight as I’m not a Tiger or Red Sox fan, and haven’t followed Eduardos career that closely. But a little bit of research in light of all this vitriol paints a much different picture.

      1) One of the first to be felled by Covid and one of the worst victims, suffering from a condition known as Myocarditis that was a serious health condition. After missing most of the yr. Returned back and gutted through 170+ innings.

      2) Had an emotional moment when he stepped off the mound to allow the crowd in Baltimore pay tribute to Mancini, after returning from cancer then was touched when Mancini acknowledged his serious illness

      3) was regarded in the Boston clubhouse as one of the more popular guys for his outgoing, good natured personality

      4) upon leaving Boston, left a long note thanking the Boston fans on insta. Comments are about 10 to 1 wishing him luck.

      5) earned kudos in the Boston clubhouse for calling out Machado for hypocrisy, and for mocking Carlos Correa.

      So 3 weeks of radio silence (admittedly not cool), makes him a clubhouse cancer? Boston fans, want to weigh in here?

        @theo now this might be a straw man/tin foil hat theory here, what if both sides are talking but info can’t be made public without a pr nightmare, so they just say we haven’t talked to him, then few weeks after everything thing resolves they tell us we were talking to him but because of legal issues we just said we went dark

    It’s mandatory that the teams honor each and every contract; it’s optional if players do.
