Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Endy Rodríguez has been sidelined for an extended period following hip surgery to repair the labrum in his left hip, announced on Wednesday. The procedure was conducted by Dr. Thomas Byrd. Rodríguez is projected to return to baseball activities in 7-9 months. This news marks another significant setback for the 26-year-old, who had already undergone two elbow surgeries that forced him to miss the entirety of the 2024 season and most of 2025.
The injury effectively ends a promising season, as Rodríguez appeared in just 45 games with the Pirates after being called up from Triple-A Indianapolis on May 12.
