E-Rod was placed on the injured list with a rib cage injury suffered during a start on May 18. He left the team in June and was transferred to the restricted list due to a personal matter.
The Tigers signed Rodriguez to a five-year, $77 million contract before the 2022 season. The 29-year-old forfeited approximately $75,000 for each day spent on the restricted list.
Rodriguez has made eight starts this season for Detroit, amassing a 1-3 record and 4.38 ERA.
