Rocchio is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox. Rocchio had manned shortstop for each of the previous five games, but he'll get a break in the series finale. Daniel Schneemann will hold down shortstop for the Guardians.

Rocchio went 0-for-2 with two walks and a stolen base in Monday's 5-3 win over the White Sox. Rocchio has gone 7-for-18 (.389) with two home runs, five RBI and four walks over seven games in September. That has helped him gain a majority of the playing time at shortstop, though he still faces a small threat from Daniel Schneemann. Rocchio hit just .206 in August and is at a .214/.304/.328 slash line with eight homers, 10 steals, 32 RBI and 48 runs scored through 127 contests this season.

Rocchio went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Friday's 3-1 win over the Dodgers. Rocchio hit a single in the sixth inning and scored on an Andres Gimenez homer before going yard himself in the eighth. Over his last six games, Rocchio has gone 7-for-19 (.368) with two homers and five RBI. That hot bat has helped him keep a spot in the lineup at shortstop on a regular basis. He's now slashing .215/.301/.331 with eight homers, 32 RBI, 48 runs scored, nine stolen bases and 15 doubles across 384 plate appearances this year.

Rocchio went 1-for-1 with a home run, four RBI, two runs scored and a walk in Tuesday's 7-1 win over Kansas City. The Cleveland shortstop opened the game's scoring in the second inning innocuously with a sacrifice fly. Rocchio then returned to blast a 372-foot, two-run homer off reliever Sam Long in the seventh before drawing a bases-loaded walk in the eighth to notch his first career four-RBI performance. The 23-year-old continues to play regularly at shortstop for the Guardians despite slashing .211/.298/.319 with seven homers, 46 runs scored and 31 RBI across 381 plate appearances, as his above-average glove keeps him in the lineup.

Rocchio is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Royals. Rocchio started two of the first three games of the series at shortstop but will begin the finale on the bench. Daniel Schneemann will hold down shortstop as the Guardians try to avoid the sweep.
