Rodriguez improved gradually over three years in the DSL and came to spring training for the first time in 2009.  He served as the regular firstbaseman in the GCL and was hitting well going into August, but slumped to his final numbers.  That's obviously not enough power to make it at first.  Rodriguez is a lanky guy and the Pirates may have been hoping he'd fill out.  He also needs to develop more patience at the plate.  He should be somewhere in short season ball in 2010.
