Rocchio isn't in the Guardians' lineup Saturday versus Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

Rocchio went 1-for-8 with a two-run home run across both games of Friday's doubleheader, and he'll now take a seat while Daniel Schneemann starts at shortstop and bats eighth.

Rocchio went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a 4-2 loss in Game 1 of Friday's doubleheader versus the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Rocchio got the Guardians on the board in the seventh inning of the matinee game. He also went 0-for-4 in the nightcap. Rocchio has started six of the last eight games at shortstop, seemingly clawing back a starting role over Daniel Schneemann at the highly-contested position for Cleveland. Rocchio has gone just 5-for-22 over eight contests in August, and he's slashing .206/.297/.312 with five homers, eight stolen bases, 23 RBI and 38 runs scored over 103 games this season.

Rocchio is out of the lineup for the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Diamondbacks.

EDGE Analysis

Rocchio made his fifth start in six games in the Guardians' 7-3 loss earlier in the day, going 1-for-3 with a walk and an RBI. Though his playing time seems to be trending up, Rocchio had posted an .553 OPS since the All-Star break heading into Wednesday, so he doesn't yet seem to have recaptured a full-time role at shortstop. He'll give way to Tyler Freeman in the nightcap.

Rocchio went 2-for-3 with a walk, one RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 8-4 win over the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Rocchio has started four of the last five games, suggesting he is clawing back some playing time from Daniel Schneemann, though the Guardians have faced three southpaws in that span. Over his last seven contests, Rocchio is 5-for-19 (.263) with two extra-base hits. He's at a .211/.304/.308 slash line with four home runs, eight steals, 21 RBI and 37 runs scored over 308 plate appearances this year. Cleveland has tried a number of players at shortstop in 2024, but the position remains up for grabs.

Rocchio hit a solo home run in his lone at-bat in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Rocchio went yard in the ninth inning to produce the Guardians' last run of the contest. The shortstop has seen a reduced role in July, with Daniel Schneemann picking up playing time, but Schneemann has just three hits over eight games since the All-Star break. Rocchio hasn't been much better, going 3-for-22 with three RBI over 12 contests in the same span. For the year, Rocchio is at a .204/.295/.300 slash line with four homers, 20 RBI, 36 runs scored and seven stolen bases across 300 plate appearances. Cleveland didn't do anything to bolster its infield at the trade deadline, though Angel Martinez -- who has played primarily in the outfield -- or Tyler Freeman could be options at shortstop if the platoon of Schneemann and Rocchio continues to struggle.

Rocchio is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Rocchio was included in the lineup in four of the Guardians' last five games, but in three of those contests, Cleveland faced a left-handed starter or bulk reliever. He still looks to be stuck in the short side of a platoon at shortstop with the lefty-hitting Daniel Schneemann, who gets the starting nod Tuesday. Rocchio is hitting just .163 in July and carries a dismal .201/.293/.286 slash line over 299 plate appearances on the season.

Rocchio is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Dating back to July 8, Rocchio has gone 1-for-19 with eight strikeouts, and his ongoing slump in what had already been an underwhelming season at the plate looks to have cost the 23-year-old his spot in Cleveland's everyday lineup. He'll hit the bench for the fourth time in six games while Daniel Schneemann mans shortstop.

Rocchio is not in the starting lineup Saturday versus the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

Rocchio will stay on the bench for a second game in a row following the All-Star break. Daniel Schneemann will draw another start at shortstop, batting seventh against San Diego.
