Rocchio will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

Rocchio has now started in three consecutive matchups with a right-handed pitcher and seems to have supplanted Daniel Schneemann -- who has hit the bench in two of those contests -- as the Guardians' preferred option at shortstop.
