  10/09/2024 • By RotoWire

  Rojas is not in the starting lineup Wednesday for Game 4 of the NLDS against the Mets, Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Rojas started each of the first three games of the series in center field, but he's picked up just one hit and will begin this contest on the bench. The Phillies will attempt to inject more offense into the lineup, with Brandon Marsh sliding over to center field and Weston Wilson getting the start in left.

  Rojas is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs. Rojas had started in each of the Phillies' last five games, but he may fade into more of a fourth-outfielder role heading into the postseason after Austin Hays returned from the injured list Tuesday. Hays, Brandon Marsh and Nick Castellanos will likely represent the Phillies' preferred outfield trio against right-handed pitching, though Rojas could replace the left-handed-hitting Marsh in the lineup when Philadelphia opposes lefties.

  08/08/2024 • By RotoWire

  Rojas went 1-for-2 with a stolen base, two runs scored and a walk in Wednesday's win over the Dodgers. Rojas didn't start the contest and took over center field for Brandon Marsh in the third inning as the latter shifted to left field. Rojas then singled and stole second in his first at-bat before coming around to score Philadelphia's fourth run of the game on a Kyle Schwarber double. The outfielder reached twice on the night and has now hit safely in each of his first two games to open the month of August. The stolen base was Rojas' 18th of the season and his first since July 9.
