• Dodgers' Miguel Rojas: Sticking around in Los Angeles

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  The Dodgers exercised Rojas' $5 million club option for 2025 on Saturday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports. Rojas appeared in 103 regular-season games for the Dodgers in 2024 and slashed .283/.337/.410 with six home runs and 36 RBI across 337 plate appearances. Rojas suffered a torn adductor injury during the NLDS against the Padres, which will require surgery during the offseason, but he was able to play in Game 2 of the World Series against the Yankees, going 0-for-3 with a strikeout. It's unclear whether Rojas' procedure will have the 35-year-old shortstop sidelined for the start of spring training.

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Manager Dave Roberts said Thursday that Rojas (thigh) is trending in the right direction and has a good possibility of being included on the World Series roster, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports. Rojas is dealing with a torn adductor and will need to undergo surgery during the offseason, but his chances of playing in the World Series are still alive. Despite trying to be active for the NLCS versus the Mets, the Dodgers elected to add Kevin Kiermaier to the roster instead. Kiermaier's roster designation will likely be determined by the Dodgers' decision for Rojas on Friday.

  Rojas said Wednesday that he has a sports hernia and will need to undergo surgery during the offseason, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports. Rojas noted that he attempted to persuade the Dodgers to keep him on the roster for the NLCS despite his injury, and he feels that he could still play through it if Los Angeles advances to the World Series. However, based on the team's unwillingness to play him against the Mets, it seems more likely that the 35-year-old infielder remains sidelined until next season.
