Rocchio went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and one run scored in Thursday's 8-2 loss to the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Rocchio is up to five steals on the year, four of which have come over his last six games. In that span, he's hitting .294 (5-for-17) with a 5:6 BB:K and four runs scored. Rocchio is up to a .218/.317/.310 slash line with no home runs, four RBI, 14 runs scored and seven doubles through 102 plate appearances. He continues to hold down the starting job at shortstop while hitting at the bottom of the order.

Rocchio went 2-for-3 with two runs scored during Sunday's extra-inning loss to Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

Rocchio provided two of the Guardians' three runs, picking up his first multi-hit game since April 6 (a span of 16 games). The 23-year-old has stolen four bases this season and has scored 12 times in 90 plate appearances. However, Rocchio is still chasing his first big-league homer through 48 games and is slashing .215/.292/.304.

Rocchio went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Rocchio has gone 3-for-12 over his last four contests and continues to see a starting role at shortstop. He's yet to do much with the steady at-bats, slashing .205/.280/.301 with two steals on three attempts, four RBI, 10 runs scored, seven doubles and no home runs through 23 contests. With Gabriel Arias batting .280 in a utility role, it's unclear how much longer Rocchio will go relatively unchallenged for his spot in the lineup.

Rocchio went 1-for-3 with a walk, one RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 6-0 win over the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Rocchio has just two hits over his last six contests, but he was able to draw a walk Monday for the first time since April 4. He's maintained the starting job at shortstop through his recent slump, though Gabriel Arias is starting to hit well and could pose a threat to Rocchio's playing time. For the season, Rocchio is batting .224 with one steal on two attempts, three RBI, five runs scored and six doubles over 53 plate appearances.

Rocchio is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

The switch-hitting Rocchio will take a seat in favor of the righty-hitting Gabriel Arias, who gets the nod at shortstop with southpaw Nestor Cortes on the hill. Rocchio had started each of the previous three contests, going 1-for-11 with a double to drop his season-long average to .227.

Rocchio is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's tilt against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

It's a routine day off for Rocchio, who has now started nine of 11 contests at shortstop for the Guardians this season. Gabriel Arias will get the call at short Tuesday.

Rocchio is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at Oakland.

EDGE Analysis

Rocchio went 3-for-11 with three doubles, two RBI and two runs while starting the first three games of the season, but he'll head to the bench Sunday. Gabriel Arias will man shortstop and bat ninth in the series finale.

Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said Friday that Rocchio will begin the season receiving the "bulk" of the playing time at shortstop, Tom Withers of the Associated Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 23-year-old is one of Cleveland's top prospects and had a decent showing during spring training with a .270/.308/.459 slash line in 13 games. Rocchio hit just seven home runs in 116 games at Triple-A Columbus last season, but he hit .280, stole 25 bases and had a 60:66 BB:K, so he could get on base enough to provide fantasy managers some value on the basepaths.

Rocchio is competing with Gabriel Arias for the Guardians' starting shortstop job, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Both Rocchio and Arias are inexperienced options, with Arias struggling at the plate in 2023. Rocchio wasn't much better, batting .247 with a .600 OPS, eight RBI, nine runs scored and six doubles over 86 plate appearances. This is one of the more even battles for Cleveland, though Rocchio has a full season of Triple-A ball under his belt and will need to be tested in the majors in the near future.

Cleveland recalled Rocchio from Triple-A Columbus on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Rocchio will start at shortstop and bat sixth Wednesday against the Reds as Gabriel Arias heads to an early shutdown because of a fractured wrist. Rocchio, 22, has flashed good speed this season at the Triple-A level but carries a rough .242/.271/.303 batting line with 22 strikeouts through his first 70 major-league plate appearances.
