Wandy Rodriguez registered another quality start Tuesday, allowing three runs over six frames in a 5-4 victory. Rodriguez dug the Bucs into an early three-run hole, but he settled in after the second inning and the offense eventually responded. The left-hander permitted six hits, no walks and struck out five on the night. The owner of four straight quality starts, Rodriguez holds a 3.40 ERA and 1.05 WHIP for the season. He gets the Brewers this weekend.

Wandy Rodriguez spun seven innings of one-run ball in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Brewers. Rodriguez gave up just six hits, walked one and struck out five, with the lone blemish coming in the form of a Rickie Weeks solo homer in the seventh. That makes two straight one-run showings and three straight quality starts for the left-hander. Wandy will bring a quality 3.25 ERA and 1.06 WHIP into next week's start against the Cubs.

Wandy Rodriguez fired six innings of one-run ball in Friday's 7-3 win over the Mets. Rodriguez scattered six hits and walked none while whiffing two batters. The lone run scored on a solo homer by Anthony Recker in the bottom of the fifth inning. It was Rodriguez's third win of the season and his first since April 19. The southpaw will carry a 3.62 ERA and 1.07 WHIP into a start against the Brewers next week.

Wandy Rodriguez was handed his first loss Monday after allowing seven runs in 3 2/3 innings against the Brewers. Rodriguez has always had a tough time in Miller Park; he entered with a 5.88 ERA in 12 career starts there. It's his worst park as far as giving up homers, and he surrendered three more long balls tonight, with Jean Seguro, Yovani Gallardo and Norichika Aoki all taking him deep. Rodriguez should be better next time out against the Nationals.

Wandy Rodriguez allowed three runs over 5 2/3 innings in a no-decision Wednesday as the Pirates beat the Phillies. It was Wandy's worst start of the season, but it could have been a lot worse. Wandy scattered nine hits and two walks in his 5 2/3 innings, striking out five. He's been really good in the early part of the season, so Wednesday was likely nothing more than an off night. He'll look to get back on track Monday against the Brewers.

Wandy Rodriguez turned in a very impressive performance in Friday's victory, limiting the Braves to just one hit over seven scoreless innings. Rodriguez racked up five strikeouts without walking a batter in the game. The only blemish on his night was a harmless single off the bat of Jason Heyward. He's been excellent to this point of the season, compiling a 0.56 ERA, 0.38 WHIP and 11/1 K/BB ratio through 16 innings. He'll attempt to keep things rolling when he does battle against the Phillies in Philadelphia on Wednesday.

Wandy Rodriguez (hamstring) has been cleared to make his scheduled start Friday against the Braves. Rodriguez was scratched from an outing Sunday because of a strained left hamstring, but he was able to make it through a bullpen session on Wednesday. The southpaw faces a tough matchup against Atlanta.

Wandy Rodriguez (hamstring) will throw a bullpen session Wednesday before he's cleared to start on Friday. Rodriguez left an outing last week and was scratched from Sunday's start due to a strained left hamstring. He's feeling better, though, as Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said the southpaw "seems to be moving in a good direction" to return on Friday.

Wandy Rodriguez (hamstring) has been scratched from his start Sunday against the Reds. Rodriguez made an early exit from his start on Monday with a strained left hamstring, so Pirates decided to play it safe and call up a replacement from the minors. For now, it sounds like Rodriguez will avoid the disabled list. Phil Irwin will be recalled to take his spot in the starting rotation.

Pirates' general manager Neal Huntington said Friday that Wandy Rodriguez's hamstring is improving, but that he's still questionable to make his next scheduled start on Sunday. Rodriguez left Monday's start in the third inning and was later diagnosed with a left hamstring strain. In the event he's unable to make the start, the Pirates will have to rely on one of their minor league arms to fill the void, perhaps Kyle McPherson.
