TORONTO — Detroit Tigers left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez, who recently made contact with the organization following one month of silence, is scheduled to report Sunday to Lakeland, Florida, home of the team's spring training complex.
The 29-year-old could pitch in a game for Low-A Lakeland by the end of the week.
After that, Rodriguez will need one or two starts for Triple-A Toledo before joining the Tigers for the first time since May 18. The third week of August is considered the best-case scenario for Rodriguez to slot into the Tigers' rotation.
