Wandy Rodriguez (knee) allowed four runs -- three earned -- on four hits and three walks over 3 1/3 frames in a rehab start with Double-A Altoona Thursday. It's certainly not an ideal performance, especially after Rodriguez's struggles before going on the DL. It's possible he'll be activated to start against the Giants on Tuesday, but the Pirates might give Jeff Locke a start instead. "Wandy reported he felt fine after (the game)," Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said. "We'll have to wait until we see him (Friday). The last time that this flared up, it flared up the day after he pitched."
