\n Red Sox ace Eduardo Rodriguez will sit out the rest of the season because of a heart issue, which the team believes is related to the southpaw\u2019s recent contraction of COVID-19.<\/p>\n

Rodriguez was diagnosed last week with myocarditis, which is an inflammation of the heart. The 27-year-old tested positive for the novel coronavirus before spring training 2.0, but was cleared to return to team workouts on July 18. Five days later, an MRI revealed Rodriguez\u2019s heart condition, prompting the team to shut him down. Doctors told Rodriguez that up to 20 percent of people who\u2019ve been infected with COVID-19 are diagnosed with myocarditis.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s the most important part of your body, so when you hear that, the first time I hear it I was kind of scared a little,\u201d Rodriguez said. \u201cNow that I know what it is, it\u2019s still scary, but I know exactly what it is. Just talk to my mom, talk to my wife, they know what I have and everything. Now we just gotta take the rest. That\u2019s hard, but you gotta take a rest.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite how much is still unknown about the long-term effects of COVID-19, the Red Sox believe Rodriguez will make a full recovery. Chaim Bloom, Red Sox chief baseball officer, described the complication as \u201cmild\u201d multiple times.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are confident that he is going to make a full recovery and that his long-term prognosis is excellent,\u201d Bloom said. \u201cBut the fact of the matter is that there just isn\u2019t enough time left this season to safely ramp him back up to pitching\u2026..While the heart is affected like this, we just can\u2019t responsibly put any this kind of cardiovascular load on him. So once it resolves, we\u2019ll be able to progress him back.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis case, while it\u2019s something that is persistent, is not something that has impacted or damaged the functioning of his heart. Now myocarditis following COVID, it is obviously not something that the medical community has a lot of data on because the virus itself is new, much less in an athlete.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rodriguez\u2019s condition serves as a reminder that older and\/or immunocompromised individuals are not the only people who should be concerned about contracting the coronavirus.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re more at risk when you\u2019re older, but it hits the young pretty hard, too, at times,\u201d Red Sox manager Ron Roenicke said. \u201cAnd Eddie just, unfortunately, is one of those guys that it hit hard, and to get to lose an entire season, it\u2019s pretty rough on anybody.\u201d<\/p>\n

With Chris Sale sidelined by Tommy John surgery, Rodriguez, who went 19-6 with a 3.81 ERA last season, was expected to be the team\u2019s No. 1 starter this season.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
