Endy Steven Rodríguez (born May 26, 2000) is a Dominican professional baseball catcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates of Major League Baseball (MLB). He made his MLB debut in 2023.

Career
New York Mets
Rodríguez signed with the New York Mets as an international free agent in July 2018. He made his professional debut that year with the Dominican Summer League Mets. In 2019, he played for the Dominican Summer League Mets and Gulf Coast Mets. He did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Pittsburgh Pirates
On January 19, 2021, Rodríguez was traded from the Mets to the Pittsburgh Pirates in a three-team trade between the Pirates, Mets and San Diego Padres; the Mets received Joey Lucchesi from San Diego, while the Padres acquired Joe Musgrove and the Pirates acquired Hudson Head, David Bednar, Drake Fellows, and Omar Cruz. He started his Pirates career playing for the Bradenton Marauders and began 2022 with the Greensboro Grasshoppers. On November 15, 2022, the Pirates added Rodríguez to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.

Rodríguez was optioned to the Triple-A Indianapolis Indians to begin the 2023 season. In 67 games for Indianapolis, he batted .268/.356/.415 with 6 home runs and 38 RBI. The Pirates promoted him to the major leagues for the first time on July 17, and he made his debut that day.

On December 12, 2023, it was announced that Rodríguez would miss the entirety of the 2024 season following reconstructive surgery on his UCL and his flexor tendon, a procedure that was performed the same day. He suffered an injury while hitting on November 13, in winter ball.
