Josh Rojas Stats

Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Josh Rojas (oblique) has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 right oblique strain. According to Diamondbacks manager, Rojas will be out for "weeks, not days." Rojas, who was lined up to start at third base for the D-backs, will be opening the season on the injured list, as will Nick Ahmed (shoulder), who was slated to be the team's starter at shortstop. The right side of the Diamondbacks infield is now up for grabs to start the year. Geraldo Perdomo, one of the team's top prospects, is the leading candidate to open the year as the starter at short. Meanwhile Sergio Alcantara, who was recently acquired in a trade with the Chicago Cubs, is the best bet to start at third.

Arizona Diamondbacks infielder/outfielder Josh Rojas (shoulder), who had cleanup surgery on his non-throwing shoulder after last season, said he's "doing really well" and is fully healthy entering spring training. "It's doing really well," Rojas said. "I'm really happy. I did the surgery. It feels good. I've been doing everything, hitting, throwing, taking ground balls. Everything feels good." Rojas is one of several Arizona players that could be ticketed for third base in 2022, but the team also likes his versatility to play all over the diamond. Josh VanMeter and Drew Ellis are also in the mix at the hot corner. In his first full big-league season in 2021, Rojas hit .264/.341/.411 with 11 home runs, 44 RBI and nine stolen bases in 550 plate appearances over 139 games.

Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Josh Rojas will be on the bench for Saturday's game against the Colorado Rockies and right-handed starter Antonio Senzatela. Rojas is batting .263 with a .339 on-base percentage, 11 home runs, and nine stolen bases in 545 plate appearances this season. Rojas started at third base on Friday, but it'll be Josh VanMeter getting the start at the hot corner on Saturday. VanMeter is batting .205 with a .293 on-base percentage, five home runs, and two stolen bases in 300 plate appearances this season. Fantasy managers are probably better off looking elsewhere for streaming help.
